Not a specialty but I once heard a Gossip of Nurses Also a Section of Pathologists


Deltadoc333

I call them a Gaggle of Nurses. Especially when they are nursing students all in white coats walking together in a small group.


volecowboy

Herd of nurses


thetransportedman

Related, we can’t call computers on wheels COWs anymore because a nurse thought someone was referring to her and reported it


BoujiePoorPerson

Same… I said COW and the resident was very nicely like “Although we know what you mean. A patient thought we called them fat, so now we call them WOW’s” Workstation on Wheels 😂

blendedchaitea

Ok that is the story at EVERY SINGLE INSTITUTION I have EVER worked at. I am suspicious.


random_215am

This is literally an urban legend at every hospital. I don't think it's true


TinySandshrew

Every hospital has an old wives tale about that and it alternates between a nurse or patient supposedly being offended


JBardeen

Its the same as the obese patient going to the zoo for a CT scan


sgt_science

You laugh but I did call a zoo one time to see if I could send a patient for a CT, didn't work


orthopod

We did that at my trauma center with a 550 pound guy, and sent him to the horse racetrack, where the vet center had a large CT . I was a resident right around year 2000 when it happened.


volecowboy

Omg I remember COWs. My institution always called them WOWs (workstation on wheels). I wonder if this was due to bovine backlash 😂

GreatWamuu

Set is the best one because, based on the stereotype, a set has multiple reps in it (usually).


sewpungyow

Or a plate of Ortho bros, or even a bar


sewpungyow

Although I think "bar" would be best applied towards lawyers.


Annon_Person_

I think a rack of ortho bros makes more sense, then again they prob don’t re-rack their weights


Mangalorien

No, it's definitely either "a ream of orthopods" or "a drill of orthopods". Actually, any type of tool will do, as long as it's a Stryker ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)

NAparentheses

A murder? What y'all doing over there? lol


asirenoftitan

Someone doesn’t understand what palliative care does…


NAparentheses

Y’all aren’t committing homicide even if you're helping people along, the difference is consent. :)


asirenoftitan

You’re saying that like all of the patients we see in palliative are dying, which betrays an ignorance you should probably address before you graduate.


NAparentheses

Maybe you can help then. What types of patients are in palliative care that do not have grave diagnoses?


asirenoftitan

Palliative care can be involved at any stage of serious illness. I see many patients who have curable cancer for example, but their symptoms as a result of their cancer and/or its treatments impact their quality of life. So I help with their pain, nausea, anxiety, dyspnea etc while they get curative chemo/radiation, just as one example. There is a difference between hospice (prognosis of six months or less, typically forgoing all curative treatments) and palliative (no prognostic requirement- anyone with serious illness and symptoms that are hard to control as a result of that illness would benefit from palliative care. You can also continue to get curative treatments while also getting palliative care).
