nurses, what’s yours?
From an ER nurse
Patient coming in and immediately asking how long they’ll be there??!!! Or coming in with NVD and wanting water before they even hit the bed 😵💫
Also I had the floor fight with me today saying a pt with a BP of 176/80 was unstable and needed to go to ICU instead of medsurg. Asymptomatic and is diagnosed with HTN by the way LMAOOO
Ended up a 1:1 real quick
Gangrene. Holy fucking shit. It’s my first time coming across is this bad. Couldn’t even reopen the room after admission. I mean to tell y’all the whole ED smelt like a decaying body. I think I have found my new #1 that will take me clean out of my body. Eeeeeyuckkkkkkkkk
My ocd has mostly been controlled by medicine. I still have major contamination OCD.. but tonight, a different type of OCD is overcoming me. Hear me out.
I played a random playlist tonight and blasé came on. If anyone knows anything about true crime, apparently it was Xana Kernoodles favorite song (Idaho 4). My OCD went a little sideways with it and I tried to skip the song and it would not skip. So now since I heard that song and I’m home alone my brain has convinced itself I will be getting murdered tonight. Insane I know, but OCD is wild.
(Not taking away from the Idaho 4 at all- horrific incident, but that’s just where my mind went tonight)
