When people come into the ER with their bed comforters, or just socks on, or their home PILLOW. I get so disgusted. Like you have no idea what germs are going back home on that shit 🤢

80 yr old Pt with extremely odorous UTI, in one room.

7yr old boy walks in, takes a huge wiff, and screams “ew! It smells like PUSS in here” the mother’s face, and the elderly pts was PRICELESS 😂

Doc:”What do you take the blood thinner for?”
Pt:”I got peripheral heart disease”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[traumamama @vitaminDplease]

Having a pt GENUINELY happy, &their face light up when you walk in the room, is one of the best feelings. This sweet, sweet little lady was so happy to have me back with her today. She offered me a hug as soon as I walked in. And I didn’t think she was gonna let me go 🥺
