Has it been that common an occurrence for you over the years? Is it something in the water?! Patients, even well adjusted ones, yes and plenty of faggy nurses that had to be told off from making a move while dealing with a goddamn patient, but a troon nurse and plural? Would love to hear some anecdotes if you have any (without PL'ing yourself too much of course)!
This was a comedy of medical errors and also it was a decade ago.
So one of my dementia patients transferred to an SNF. She was like A&Ox2 on a good day. She fell getting out of bed (orthostatic hypotension is a bitch in the elderly) and went to the emergency department. They did the usual CT, found SAH, and after that she somehow went from neuro to med/surg. Not sure how that happened, I guess because her baseline was dementia and confusion.
So I go to visit her and I see this dude in scrubs with a wig on shaking her vigorously by the shoulders while telling her "MY NAME IS CYNTHIA MY NAME IS CYNTHIA!"
I love nurses but don't please shake neuro patients. That was the end of his license.
