No Sense of SmellRating: (votes: 0) I work with a nurse with no sense of smell from birth. Actually I'm jealous that she can deal with the "smells" of nursing with such ease. Smell is part of assessment, such as noting the smell of infectious things like wounds and urine. Some people swear their's a distinct smell to c-diff poop, but I can't tell. However, it really shouldn't be a problem. Comment: I agree, it shouldn't be a problem. In fact, it may become a blessing in disguise! There are some very unpleasant smells involved in nursing.
