Fuck Yeah Nursing Student Cat

what sort of strange slang is this

people keep asking me

i know not of what they speak

i know what it does, damn it

but who the hell named these things seriously

one of these days i will figure out why i pay money to go to nursing school

one of these days…

being cynical before becoming a nurse is just being prepared

i’d like to point out you should only do this if you have literally no other choice

which actually isn’t likely to happen

today’s posts are brought to you by the letter “hollywood first aid is bullshit.”

CPR does not stand for “Clean, Pretty, Reliable”

the facts

• i’m estimating really high and saying CPR has a 5% success rate
• it doesn’t go “fuck death” and then bring people back to life
• it only works if you’re mostly dead (well. actually dead. but recent.)
• basically your heart goes all wibbly and you shock it to STOP it in hopes it will restart normally
• giving cpr to someone who died from like blood loss will do NOTHING
• if you’ve got to shock someone like ten times they’re probably dead sorry
• if it makes a KACHUNK noise you’re kind of screwed it’s not working right
• the same goes if the person jumps ten feet off the floor
• seriously how does that work

want to hear a funny joke? 

free time.

it’s a valuable skill both in and out of the workplace
