while taking to other students you have ever said... "Hey I have a foley catheter insertion lined up for us to do" and the other students become just as excited as you are.
or if you have ever said....
"I have done two I.V. insertions....how many have you done?"
or if you have ever said to another student
"Boy you owe me big time...because I emptied your bedside potty while you were ( insert location here) ........." and you are being 100 percent serious.
you know you are a nursing student if
you have stuck your nose in another student hair while giving a bed bath to an unconscious contractured client with a serious yeast infection in an effort to smell something better than the smell rising ( no pun intended) from under the sheets.
and you are definitely a nursing student if you have ever said
"thank god we did not kill them." once you find out your client has been d/c the day after you were assigned to care for them.
