This one's for the RN's.......

This week I worked the night shift.

I only had one patient but he kept me busy.
I didn't consume any caffeine but I could have used some.
I didn't call a doctor, but almost.
I didn't chart my assessment until now but no one is going to tell the 'boss lady'.
Instead of call lights it was crying.
The verdict wasn't 'chronic back pain'--Instead it was teething (but who knows...)
My nursing interventions were cuddling, cheek kissing, and rocking--Instead of guided imagery (who even does that?)


The up side?
At least baby diapers beat adult ones.

PS- My patient was Jakey and yes he is feeling better. Thank goodness!
