1. The ER stretchers are bloody and sticking out in the hallway. So true...I see this a lot as I work out of the local trauma center.
2. The crash cart is covered in EKG paper and empty syringes, and all th drawers are open.
3. You meet a city or county cop in the elevator who asks for directions to your unit.
4. A nurse is filling out 3 incident reports and 5 med error sheets.l
5. Bloody sheets and pillows are flowing out into the hallway from a patient's room.
6. The Charge Nurse is yelling "Does anyone want overtime??!!" That too! But I walk into work and they're like, do you want to see your house today at all??
7. The ambulances are double parked in front of the ED Nothing New. Trauma center, and hospital discharges.....average about 7 spaces for all ambulance with about 15 rigs pulling in and out
8. On your way in, an agency nurse storms out and says "I'm never gonna work HERE again!!!!!!"
9. During report, the offgoing nurse reports that we are out of Pavulon and COFFEE!!!!!!
10. You walk into the trauma room, and the physician is actually doing something, like, with his hands and that could be taken as actual patient care.
