Ever had one of those shifts where you just can’t stop laughing despite the chaos? Yesterday, a patient mistook me for a delivery driver with all the snacks I brought in. It was a great reminder of the lighter side of nursing, even when things get tough. What’s your favorite funny moment from the floor?
I totally get that! I once walked into a patient’s room with so many snacks, they asked if I was the new dietary tech. 
Got any other goofy moments like that?
It’s wild how snacks can change the vibe of a shift! I had a similar moment when a patient thought I was selling cookies instead of meds. I can’t help but wonder if we should start a snack cart for patients — could lighten the mood.
I can relate! One time, a patient thought I was there to do a taste test rather than administer meds. It definitely lightened the mood.
