I dunno how the rest of you feel, but I texted Deb last night and asked, “Is it May yet?” I love school (really), and I’m so glad I’ve chosen nursing, but I am plumb out of energy and ambition. Thank god for the summer, when I can focus on just one job at a time…
So I could use a laugh, and thought you might be able to use one, too. My day job employees gave me a great “nurses” daily calendar for Christmas, and I thought this entry was amusing, especially in the midst of all these tests and our own individual struggles with clinicals. Enjoy:
Nursing School Survival Rules
1) When in doubt, wash your hands.
2) The correct answer is either “hand washing” or “patient airway.”
3) If it moves, ambulate it. If it doesn’t move, turn and reposition it q2 hours.
4) Remember the 11th Commandment: Thou shalt not cross thy sterile field.
5) The instructor is always right.
6) See Rule #5.
