Some of those were just plain gross.
Some made me laugh out loud.

dying. I am dying reading these.
I sometimes wonder what it would be like if I had gone into nursing like my mom wanted me to.
Yeah. NO. I am good right where I am.

That made my day. I was hooting so loud that I had to read them to my husband. Potato vines, banana stickers and "all you can eat under a buck"! Thanks for that!   |

I'm on my third week at my new position in a hospital, and I can already tell you the crazy shit that happens in them!! I'm not even a medical profession on the floor, I'm a Staffing Coordinator in Nursing Administration. Last week I had to send one of my RNs to our own ER because a patient broke out of his restraints and tried to choke out his wife, my RN intervened and he bit her and kicked her in the stomach! Another guy coming down from meth lit his hospital bed on fire, not just a little flame, like blazing mattress flame, because no one would buy him meth from his dealer. And that was just a Tuesday afternoon!

Old old woman comes into the ER.
What's wrong she is asked?
I have a buzzing in my tummy.
She is asked several more times.
I have a buzzing in my tummy.
So, a stethoscope is put on her tummy.
A light buzzing sound is heard.
Call for an X-ray.
Before she goes, it is suggest by someone( who had worked in a nursing home) to do a pelvic exam.
Well now the woman has a dildo stuck to far up for her to pull out and was to embarrass to admit it.
ERs are very educational.

I've heard that "greens" story before. Probably part urban legend based in truth, unless there are multiple old ladies showing up in ERs with potatoes in their vags. C'mon, you guys! Nursing is FUN! |

Years ago, I was helping a co worker who was starting an IV on a patient with HIV. She says "there is going to be a little stick." The patient said, "Oh, I thought you said little prick and that is what got me in this trouble to start with.

Hahaha those are hilarious. My favorite was the guy with the rings where they had to call in a dentist on Christmas Day to drill them off! |

the "greens" story----OMG! I can't !!!!  I recently read somewhere about a man in an ER with a LIGHTBULB stuck in his rectum....what?   I realize/ HOPE some of the horror stories I've read through the years are NOT true! Some of them show Xrays to "prove" it....but...hello, photo manipulation!!?! (or...not!) I've also read many stories where people tell the doctor "I accidentally FELL or SAT on it." Sooo many scary items that would never or SHOULD never be in a chair, or anywhere else they could "FALL" on it "Accidentally" |
