People’s entitlemen
So I was between codes on a multi-code patient, and one of my other patients happens to walk out of her room, past all of the hallway patients, past the code room that is extending its chaos into the hall, and tells me “Bye, I’m going to another hospital. Nobody is paying attention to me here.”Keep in mind. This lady has only been here for an hour and a half, and I specifically drew her blood an hour ago and said “I have to go to an emergency. Either I or the doctor will be back in 1-2 hours when your results come back. Hit the call light if you need anything.”it was “Alright. Let me take your IV out.”it was “ And she didn’t like that at all. She complained to my charge (AS I BEGIN CODING THIS PATIENT AGAIN) and complained about how she’s been waiting 20 WHOLE minutes for her tylenol! and that I was a horrible nurse and I’m just trying to make her leave and I don’t really care.Some days I just don’t understand people’s entitlement.
