- Don’t drop off your friend or family having surgery and come back later with a bacon burger in your hand.
- Don’t go “Ooh, that needle looks so big!” right before I start the IV.
- Once we pre-sedate, don’t talk so much.
- If you are going to cry, make some excuse and step outside.
- And the most important instruction: When they are in surgery, yes, please grab a bite of food and something to drink…
having to call the Emergency Response Team because you passed out during their recovery period is so not cool.
Hahaha, that’s one I haven’t seen yet!
you will , sooner or later!
My personal favorite is when parents eat Mcdonalds in front of their NPO children….lol
Oh my gosh, those must be the ones that leave their brains at home!
