My dad is an ER nurse and I just showed him this. His words “That’s how we do” 😂😭

This one I know from personal experience! At the start of COVID, the exact day the first local died from it (cruise ship passenger), I was hospitalized with a respiratory infection, and was in isolation. There were medical personnel who refused to enter my room, and I never blamed them. I made damn sure to thank the ones who would, like the respiratory techs who would come do breathing treatments, and the one who could do a totally painless tap for arterial blood gasses. And my RN! They did nasal swabs the first day. Took 5 days to get results from CDC in Atlanta. Turned out to be pneumonia caused by influenza B. A long time to be isolated and terrified. The medical staff who came in saved my sanity. God bless them forever!

Half of the ER nurses I know could lick the floor and their immune system goes "meh."

To quote my retired ER nurse neighbor "I have been exposed to things I should be long dead from."

I worked as a unit clerk, and one evening a doc came in to see a consult. Patient had body lice, and he was about to walk right past the"isolation" signs and go in without gowning up. I said, sir, that pt has lice. He practically left skid marks on the floor he turned around so fast!

ER nurses truly are fearless superheroes.

I was in a car accident that left me unable to use my lower body for quite sometime. I wet myself and it got on my nurse, I cried I felt so badly. She laughed and said, “That’s the most sterile fluid I could get on me here!”.
ER trauma nurses are a different breed 😂

[PlagueRavenRX]

Can we just appreciate that eager little student nurse who was extra prepared?

[areummarie]

Every ER nurse is like the last one until we hear the word "bedbug" or "lice". You'll see us in hazmat suits so damn fast after that

Nurses are the backbone of healthcare, Im grateful they are there when you need them most. Love the vid Steve, thanks for the laugh and its 100% accurate

I had a really bad fall and dislocated my jaw and had some nasty wounds so I was covered in blood and dirt. An ER nurse confidently walked up to me in the waiting room saying "relax, let me feel your jaw." and BAM! snapped my jaw back in place without warning. She spared me A LOT of pain during the remaining wait.

As a former ED Receptionist, I can confirm ER Nurses FEAR NOTHING.

[dillonelken]

As an ER nurse I can verify. This is a hundred percent true 😂

[RoundSwan]

ER staff who really embrace their work put themselves at risk for others every day ❤ incredible humans!

[CoolTaxiDriver]

ER doctors are the same! My husband had shingles on his face and the doctor was touching the raised bumps. He wasn’t concerned at all. “Yep, it’s shingles.”

[ag]

As a patient who was in isolation, this was crazy accurate(minus the shirtless part 😄)the balls on some of my nurses! God bless nurses🖤

The ER nurse has the power to make all diseases go away by making them faint by looking at their sexy body

I don't have an embarassing @ hospital story but I do remember one instance over the phone.

I was having really bad pain in my hip from a cramp, and it was making me so anxious and upset i was nauseous. Was trying to explain it to a nurse over the phone and ended up being sick WHILE on the line with her because just describing it made me nauseous.

I felt so bad and apologize to the lady and all she said was "No no it's okay honey you're fine." and I will forever appreciate hospital staff from this day forth for that.

Also because one of my best buddies from college is a nurse, and I will always respect him for the hours he puts up with. Man is practically nocturnal and idk how he STILL remains the absolute ray of sunshine that he is.
