Ops! Things that make you go huh!

6 I remember to this day, first day as a nurse, putting orders in

Order said " CBC cdiff"

I put an order for CBC and one for stool for CDT x2

That same thing happens again later on the day, 3 other people with "CBC cdiff"

So I went on to ask a nurse, ( I thought, damn, what is up with all this cdiff??? My patients don't even have diarrhea!) so I asked the nurse if we screened for cdiff, and she looked at me like I was from mars so I told her, look at this orders....
... Then I learned about the differential never seen that in school!

So what made you feel like a ?
No joke ! When I was in the hospital the inturen came in and told me her wanted to do a ct scan to see my "nerves "Two days he came in and said well I just talked to the radiolgest and the ct is not the best test to see nurves I waved the my nurse in the room and asked "don't you all have a guide book for him ) she laughted and said yes but they do not read it .Two

Agreed.

Ok look the spelling / wrighting is not going to get better so let all just get all the teasing over and done with because I for one am tired of it .

Here we go again. Trekfan, PM me if you want.The comments regarding Trekfan's spelling have inspired entire threads alone. She has a disability that affects her written language, and tires of the constant comments thereof. Though no maliciousness may be meant, it starts to feel like people are constantly pointing and whispering, so to speak.

This makes sense to me now, but when I was starting as a ward clerk, one Doc would order "pulmonary toilet.". To the inexperienced, that brought all sorts of crazy images to mind.

I recently had a nurse tell me we shouldn't give a resident Tylenol for a fever because fevers kill the bacteria in a sick person's body. HUH?!?

Well, there are also instances that doctors made such thing too.
