The “Safe Bedside Table”
That’s kind of stupid. If you need to use it, you’ll have to take everything off of it. If that’s the case, why bother putting anything on top of it? Why make a table your wouldn’t want to place anything on top of?
No, you don’t understand.
This actually happens.
We got a 16 year old boy on our unit once, because Pediatrics was full, and it’s about 1 in the morning and all the nurses are at the nurses station having a break and we’re all talking and having a laugh and then all of a sudden this kids heart monitor just goes CRAZY.
So we call the code and I grab the crash cart and about 6 of us just take off running down the hall and we bust in the room and this kid is just sitting there with his hand around his junk looking MORTIFIED.
So we just sort of backed out of the room quietly, walked calmly to the stairwell, and had a total and complete hysterical breakdown.
It was the funniest shit ever.
Omigod so many nurses have told me stories like these.
I think this is the first time I’ll be posting my own picture in my blog well… let’s just say i was too shy before lol
