Do you already have a nurse you hate?

[-] feveryone@toast.ooo 9 points 4 days ago

not here. but there was a resident doctor whom I really hated: looked 18, acted like he was 40, mind of a 4 year old. They never should of let him graduate high school.

I just spent a few days sitting with my FIL in hospital. We binged Gunsmoke. I am a reluctant fan of Festus now.

do they have you scheduled for any sight-seeing like CT or MRI scans?
can you order UberEats to your room? I watched them come and go frequently and wondered if it was for employees, inmates, or both
do you ask all the nurses for crunchy ice?
have you asked that one nurse for a bed bath?
are most of the nurses pregnant like they were at my hospital? Wtf is in the water?!

[-] feveryone@toast.ooo 4 points 4 days ago

24/7 EEG

other stuff was done last month

idk about uber eats, I'm poor lol.

I love crunchy ice, I'll have to ask.

I give myself washcloth baths in the bathroom ; it's ok.

Ha, they all have kids, idk if they are pregnant. A lot have those fancy flag pins now, and it's a metro hospital so maybe pregnancy is going out of style.

I think you know what's in the water.
