MAD Nurse Thoughts LOL
Posted by Raven on June 23rd, 2005
Nursing thought process, gone MAD:
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong and if nothing has gone wrong, you obviously don’t understand the situation.You believe if you can keep your head among all this confusion, you obviously don’t understand the situation.
You can drink a pot of coffee and still go to sleep in the morning.
You believe every patient needs TLC: Thorazine, Lorazapam, and Compazine.
You can’t see it; it’s probably not there.
Your sense of humor seems to get more warped each year.
You think it is acceptable to use “penis” and “vagina” in a normal conversation.
You Say: “Why am I here?”
Everyone gets treated exactly the same…until they piss you off.
When you get a call telling you the name of your next admit and they ask if you can do the care plan before the patient gets to the floor…
When called for orders, the MD says, “Write them yourself; you know the patient better than I do.”
You can look your evil male patient in the eye and tell him, “This is a French Size 14 Catheter; I promise it won’t hurt going in.” Oh it will… (When you could use a French size 8 cath… )

I thought I had long ago forgotten how to cringe, but you just changed all that, Raven.
“This is a French size 14 catheter…”

hehehe…the sizes have nothing to do with length…LOL…rather the bore size. Uh that is–the diameter of the cath. So if a man thinks a BIGGER French cath means better…boy is he in for some serious PAIN.:twisted:

You of course are mentally wearing your latex and leather scrubs while inserting the catheter aren’t you?
