The patch on my right arm is the same as exodus'... And the left arm... And the badge... It's almost like we work together

Just had a call for SOB at a SNF. Walk in the patient's room to see him on O2 at 2 LPM.....via Non-Rebreather.

This guy might actually live to get discharged! And then go to jail.... Trying to lose the cops by running across the highway is generally ill-advised.

On a related note, we're about two weeks away from the most dangerous month in American medicine.

first years are great. they listen.

this moron, made me badger him for 6 hours until he finally realized i was right.

after throwing a tantrum in the nursing station.

forcing the patient to take meds she tried to refuse.

and then ultimately understanding that his 3 years of residency didn't apply to this individual.

i'm open ears for the results of my incident report

I really just need to vent about this. I had the worst call of my career yesterday. It seemed everything that could have went wrong went wrong. Then, we were criticized for every decision we made. Of course, the nightmare is not over. I feel a giant pit in my stomach and nauseous. I just want to fall asleep and just not wake up for a week. It really makes me question to go to medic school and why I do this job. To make matters worse in fell in the worse weekend ever, the one between my deceased fathers birthday and fathers. I have no one to vent to right now that will understand, I feel horrible and just need to get this out.

My mother is insane. I just received a box containing a Littman Master Cardiology stethoscope and more scrubs than I can count. So I called her and was like why would you send me scrubs? I'm going to EMT school, not nursing school. She just assumed that everyone in medicine wears scrubs. Then I told her that I really really appreciated the stethoscope but it was totally unnecessary and I would send it back to her and for her to get her money back. She said OH NO! The guy at the store said this is a must have because anything less and you won't be able to hear anything and that the only people who use anything less are CNA's at nursing homes. Yeah...he totally robbed her.

What an awesome mom!

Yea she got swindled but at least now you have a really nice scope.

We don't wear scrubs but they make awesome pajamas!
