@@blasiandumplin it most likely wasn't going to make sense bc people with dementia or Alzheimers don't make sense a lot of the time. My grandma who died a couple months ago had Alzheimers. Most of the time she would just tell us stories from when my mom was little but other times she would tell us random things that don't.make sense like "me and my dog went to water boat and ate the sandwich Margret got us with the duck she sold to Gary that lived next to me." A lot of times she would just make noises and hope someone would respond.

One time, in the lab, a doctor caused a stir sending down a sample he thought was a tumour that the patient coughed up. Ordered a slew of tests -fungal, TB, culture, histology, the works. We discussed if to culture as a sputum or tissue (we're micro) as it looked black and round. The MLA goes into the hood to set up for culture, opens the container, plops it onto a sterile dish to dissect, and notices a tiny stem.... She calls the floor and politely describes the sample to the nurse "..I think this is a raisin". The nurse on the line is silent for a moment, and then confesses that the patient had a cinnamon raisin toast for breakfast. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

HoD freaked out so bad he went down into the BMW and looked for it and - I'm not kidding - literally dug it up from the waste. To this day I feel so ashamed of this.

When I started as a unit secretary, a nurse needed a different sized condom cath, I tracked it down, and asked how it was used. She explained that the patient refused a regular cath, but because of morbid obesity, they couldn’t get to the appendage to get the condom cath on and it wouldn’t stick.

He speaks the language, helps translate and organize, and will assist on procedures when requested (which is actually where he lost his fear of blood). Anyway: he was asked to assist on a rectal exam, and initially couldn't understand how he could help. Turned out the man had so much ass crack hair, that it looked like a skunk tail wedged between his cheeks. He had to get knuckle deep and pull the hair apart with both hands, so the doctor could gain access to the man's anus. I haven't thought of that story in years, thanks for the reminder, haha

The first time I had to call a doctor on a pt it didn't go according to plan. I had noticed she needed oxygen was previously fine and her lungs had crackles in the bases. I called the attending to let him know. Well this quality individual responded by asking me why I thought she needed addressed by the dr and what I should do about it. He then asked for a full head to toe...I was deer in headlights...I'm thinking, you're the doctor, no I didn't check to see if she had an peripheral edema, I stopped at her lungs and needing more oxygen. The the only thing I could come up with was a chest x ray. I remember when I said that he asked if that was it...I drew a blank and hung up the phone. When I saw the cxr, knew it looked junky I called him back. He goes, "what do you want to do now?" Again I froze. The only thing I could think of was Lasix...so i asked for that...he then asked what dose I should give...again I had no clue. Before hanging up he asked if this walkie talkie who was tolerating PO could use anything else. I said no. He asked if I thought if we should stop her IVF. To which i was like, oh gosh, yes. He just saved himself a third phone call. Basically, he made me think long and hard and encouraged me to get all my ducks in a row before I call anybody. This attending rocks, he makes you think and oftentimes provides tons of education for us, he never talks down do us. I am glad that was my first mess up on my first shift ever

Last week I helped my classmate provide wound care for a 508 pound patient with cellulitis & multiple unstageable pressure ulcers. At one point I was supporting his legs/hips while he laid on his side but had to keep my face turned away bc the smell from his infected wound was making me nauseous. When I looked down I saw that the bandages had been completely soaked with pus & just slid off, leaving the ~8 inches of raw skin exposed. I legit thought it was my fault for not being gentle enough, 100% believed I somehow ripped the skin off his legs from applying too much pressure. It was not a fun 10 minutes

Her husband was demented and often attempted to prevent care. So one time, in a moment of frustration, I sent him downstairs telling him the kids were here to visit him (they weren’t). It was 20 minutes of peace, and I could concentrate on my patient. No regrets.

OTR/L here. Sure you can order PT without OT!

PTs we’re treating mobility and amputations. OTs were mental health experts treating shell shock (aka PTSD). The healthcare system pushed OT to be more medical so they apply mental health and body movement to perform meaningful activities. The “occupation” refers to whichever activities “occupy” their day.

An RD here. Years ago I was consulted for a diabetic ICU patient who was hyperglycemic with the tube feeding. I told the haughty attending surgeon that I recommended changing to Glucerna DM at the rate I had calculated. Most docs would have said "sure" and asked me to write the orders. Not him. Without bothering to look up at me he asked "and WHAT does the DM stand for?" Like this is relevant! Who cares what the name of the formula is? I was so surprised I slowly replied "diabetes mellitus". He said "oh" and told me to write the orders. From then on though he always took my recs without question! P. S. I always teach my interns to say B-U-N, not bun. P.S. the first week of my internship I asked my preceptor in a shocked voice "why do they keep these surgical patients npo for so long? Don't the docs know how important nutrition is?" I was totally clueless about post-op care. Jeez!

At my nursing school(RN) we were required to experience providing every level of care from CNA thru RN. So first semester we could only shadow nurses & had to provide CNA care for our 4 assigned patients…vitals, bathing, changing linens, etc. I was assigned a very obese patient and the vast majority of their weight was in their buttocks & thighs. This patient was unable to get up to even use a bedside toilet chair and just getting a bed pan under them was extremely challenging and getting it in the correct position was nearly impossible. So…I ended up having to clean the patient after a failed bedpan placement for a BM. It ended up taking FOUR of us to hold things out of the way so I could make sure I got the patient completely clean!😳 And also had to make sure everything was dry to try & make sure they didn’t get any sores or yeast/bacterial infections. This poor patient ended up having THREE BMs during my shift. I know it had to be embarrassing for them to have 4 nursing students doing such a task and laying on their side caused them pain bc they’d had just had their gallbladder removed 2 days prior. 😕 I have NO CLUE how the patient managed at home alone!

Turns out that was the chief of surgery with roughly 150 surgeons under him in our huge hospital.

The first day I met my cardiologist, he shook my hand, asked me how I had been doing, and sat down without introducing himself. Asked me a bunch of questions about my heart flutter, which was the reason I was there, but grew increasingly concerned as it seemed my symptoms had all gotten more severe... I mentioned they hadn't actually gotten worse, and he said "well, it's not normal to still have a heart flutter..." and then he looked at the chat to reference my test results and went, "...oh." He apologized and explained he'd mixed me up with another patient, seemingly really disappointed and frustrated with himself for that. I found out he's actually a really nice guy and a great cardiologist, but also, I'm starting to think he's kind of a dork who gets flustered easily. At the end of the appointment he realized he should probably go back and introduce himself to me and the person sitting next to me... my then-fiancé shook his hand and said "I'm their partner" and the doc got this perplexed look like his brain had just restarted and said "oh, that's good; partnership is how we support each other" and then just turned and walked out of the room.... and then we found him waiting awkwardly on the outside of the room so he could show us out. Like four months later at my first check-in with him, my partner didn't join me and he apologized for being so awkward, hoping he didn't make him uncomfortable (he hadn’t; we're also both anxious dorks). He was much calmer, and we chatted about his family and how many people in his family are cardiologists, like his father and brother, and he was overall really grounded about the whole thing. Given the context, I'm guessing he'd had a horribly stressful week, and it pretty much fried his brain. He still jokes about it, every appointment, and he's the best doctor I've ever had--and also my heart works better now, so yay ❤️

I was working in ICU in first my year's as ICU nurse. The patient's BUN was off the scale triggering "Critical result" so required to notify MD within 15 min of receiving the lab call reporting it. So I called the Attending MD at 0230 am. I explained Patient BUN was 80 (norm 7-20) I was pretty freaked. It could be severe kidney or heart issues when level >20. The physican heard my report and then sighed patiently in a gentle voice and asked, "Isn't he the upper GI Bleed?" I said yes. "The BUN is elevated due to the high GI bleed's blood digesting in the stomach then being absorbed while passing through the intestinal tract" and without saying anything else hung up. After with another critically ill patient was admitted to ICU and he admitted he had no clue so was calling in a specialist. New to the hospital, I chose him as my personal physician....
