When sending medical advice, ask your doctor, but also ask an experienced nurse. Nurses are underrated.

Elon Musk Absolutely! Doctors are great at diagnosing. Nurses are great at assessing and understanding their patients because they spend a lot of time with them to establish a rapport and build trust. This is often when patients disclose information that can be helpful in diagnosis.

I don't think I've ever seen a patient post-Whipple without an anastomotic leak 😢

Why can't you hear a pterodactyl going to the bathroom? because the "P" is silent

Pause, and take a moment to thank a nurse. This #NursesWeek, and every day, I am grateful for these amazing healers who don’t just save lives – they truly make them better. #NursesMakeTheDifference #ThankYou 💙

OMG. So my husband went to the bathroom. An hour later I text and ask if he's alive. He doesn't answer. I go into our bedroom, the bathroom light is on and the door is locked. I knock he says nothing. I knock louder and call his name. Nothing. I find a knife and unlock the door.

I need this sweatshirt! Code Blue Memes is this technically #nursingproblems or is it more like nursing solutions? haha
