tigger how bout when you grab their feet and lift the body stays straight as a board and comes off the bed. STiff.

My partner and I almost fell over when we walked into a nursing home to see fire guys standing there looking shocked while the staff was doing "compressions." The pt's entire body was bouncing off the bed, perfectly straight. I don't know about light as a feather, but stiff as a board...ya think. :shock:

i had one I relayed on a different thread where a cna was doing compressions on a patient and after each one the patient would STOP THAT HURTS or another more colorful word.

the reason for cpr, couldn't find a radial pulse. Here's your sign

Dear lord...nursing homes...an entire other topic.

Ruff you should be writing some of this stuff down; it's pretty funny. You could go on the road with it, scheduling stand-up acts at different hospitals and services for the medical staff. It could be a nice side job.

[Just Plain Ruff]

what makes you think I don't have it written down and awaiting publication.

one thing would be that it's not waiting publication but I have much of it written down.

I keep a journal, been keeping it much longer than blogs have been around.
