@RNSuperHero True story: Pt: "I'm feeling a little bloated." Day Nurse: "Okay, let's take a look." Lifts up patient's gown... "Oh, I see the problem. You still have your lead apron on from your X-ray this morning."

@BuffyDunes You’d think radiology would be looking for that

@RNSuperHero When they pull out their A-line or central line 😭😭😭😭

@freschly_snipes Oh the Alines always look like a murder scene

@RNSuperHero Ohhhh nooooooooo

@RNSuperHero Hey, it could have been worse—they could have been temp pacer wires. 😂

@RNSuperHero Me: *applies a set of "wrist reminders" after putting everything back

@RNSuperHero This is why I prefer them sedated.

@RNSuperHero I love it when they pull out their IV and neatly fold it up into a napkin “to save for later.” So polite. 🫠

@RNSuperHero Sorry i cant help laughing behind my mask

@RNSuperHero Or when they hand you the foley catheter and the balloon is still inflated. 😳

@nurse_crabby JESUS

@RNSuperHero E-collar

@RNSuperHero I once had “honey I took out my earrings hope that’s ok” ::hands me triple lumen central line::

@RNSuperHero Welp, it's going to REALLY bother you having them put back 🤦🏼

@RNSuperHero Oof. Better than an ET tube.

@RNSuperHero To be fair they prob were

@RNSuperHero A man once kept pulling off his ostomy bag and telling my coworker he had Christmas gifts inside for his children.

@RNSuperHero I still blush when I remember pulling out my NG tube. In place ~7 days, it made me miserable, but I knew it was essential. Then in a burst of frustration, I just pulled it out. 🤷‍♀️ To this day, I don't know how that impulse got by me. I'm typically a super compliant patient!
