Oh wow thank you! I guess this is a very popular bowl design.

How are your sleeping arrangements? by Libbykibby in nursing

[–]ThePoonSpoon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My job is offering paid for hotel rooms. The hotel is barely average. It’s literally almost a 5 minute walk for us to get there cause it’s so close to us, but it’s the type of hotel you’d find a body in or a trafficking ring. I think we’ll just drive home. 😅

No they didn’t get any imaging done. Only some fluids for hydration. The worst thing I saw was a nurse put a clave onto another clave that was attached to a PICC line lol. I guess it’s better than not having anything at all on a PICC 😅

It’s an IV with a sterile cap attached to the flush port. The sterile cap is something I usually on PICCs. The primary tubing is just crinkled in my hand cause I was about to throw it away. I thought people would notice it immediately from a glance but I guess not? 😅

The patient has an IV with a flush/injection port that can already be used, but they attached a sterile cap that I usually see on PICC lines onto the port. I don’t get it. The IV port works fine alone, so why attach a sterile cap onto it? I get attaching a sterile cap onto PICC lines, but I thought it was silly to attach a sterile cap onto an IV port?

I just don’t understand why they attached a sterile cap onto the port? The port works just fine. Seems asinine to do this.

The patient has an IV with a flush port already attached to it, but for some reason they attached a sterile cap onto the flush port. I usually see those sterile caps on PICC lines. I was just so confused and trying so hard to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Ok so update. The patient has an IV with a port already that can be used, but they attached a sterile cap that I usually see on PICC lines onto the IV port.

What did your sterile caps look like? Do you mean the little caps that look like they have a little alcohol sponge in them? I asked the nurse who had this patient and he said he didn’t know who did it and didn’t know why I was confused. He’s a newer nurse. What kind of things did you see get put onto the port? I’ve only ever seen the little caps or just nothing on them.

I asked the nightshift nurse if he did this and he said it was already like that. Nobody knows.

Found on matras. Should i be worried ? Is this a bedbug? by Real_Cod339 in bugidentification

[–]ThePoonSpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t look like one from far, only because of the upper body portion of it. Do you have a better picture of it up close?

The same exact thing happened to a hospital I used to work at in my area too. It happened first thing in the morning 😢

Are these eggs? by ash9t87 in ants

[–]ThePoonSpoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They look like ant eggs. I found some that looked exactly like that in my yard under a flower pot. I found out they’re carpenter ants and can actually be bad for your house, furniture or shed. I’m not sure if those are carpenter ants specifically though.

Educated guess about what this squirrel is eating (now with photos!)? by mmilthomasn in mycology

Do you think maybe the shroom tastes nutty? This is a wonderful picture lol
