I am a retired Nurse Practitioner.
If someone were to make me a quilt I would want it to be affirming of me and my occupation. Cute sayings alone wouldn't do it for me. I have held hands, listened, hugged, explained, and just plain 'been there' with my patients. It always felt good to have a Thank You. ali |

Please be kind to our staff. They are harder to find than patients. Code Brown!! ICU Nurses do it with more pumps! STAT my ass, it can wait!! ANNIE!! ANNIE!! Are you all right? |
Your last period was when?
At 9 cm and epidural is not doable. You are about 2 weeks over your due date, I see a C-section in the future. |
Thanks for all of the sayings, I got a laugh out of it and also was able to pick ones for the quilt. I will post the quilt when I have it completed.
Thanks for everyones help! |

put this under your tongue

How about "This won't hurt - it will be just a little prick"
|
"What's up Doc?" - or was that from somewhere else?
Just checking....blood pressure,temperature,mood... Get back on the pills... Have you had your medication yet? How do you feel today? I need to check your pulse... |
Bottoms up
And how are "we" today? |
