#WHATSHOULDWECALLNURSING

WHEN I’M TRYING TO RESOLVE AN ISSUE FOR MY PATIENT BUT I HAVE TO CALL 5 DIFFERENT DOCTORS

because they’re all just like,

WHEN I PEEK UNDER THE COVERS TO CHECK MY PATIENT’S FECAL MANAGEMENT DEVICE

if it’s intact:

if it’s not:

WHEN 10 DIFFERENT ALARMS AND CALL BELLS ARE GOING OFF AT ONCE

WHEN MY PATIENT IS HEALTHY ENOUGH THAT I’M ESSENTIALLY JUST A WAITRESS

i’m just like,

WHEN MY PATIENT’S FAMILY BRINGS THEIR BABIES AND CHILDREN IN TO VISIT DURING FLU SEASON

i’m just like,

WHEN MY PATIENT KEEPS SLIDING DOWN IN BED AND WE HAVE TO BOOST HIM UP Q5MIN

i’m just like,

WHEN I MAKE ONE LITTLE CHANGE IN MY PATIENT’S DRIPS AND SHE IMMEDIATELY CRUMPS

WHEN I HAVEN’T EVEN GOTTEN REPORT AND I’M ALREADY CLEANING UP POOP

WHEN THE DOC ASKS ME TO HAND HIM AN ITEM THAT HE CAN EASILY REACH HIMSELF

i’m just like,

WHEN SOMEONE ASKS ME TO TRADE SHIFTS AND I JUST DON’T WANT TO BUT I’M TRYING TO THINK OF A GOOD EXCUSE
