...when you're delirious and hospitalized.
When asked, "Do you know where you are right now?" of some of my less oriented patients I've heard: "a barn",
"a birthday party", "a bus", "a sex lab", and "Serbia" to name a few incorrect responses.
One of the unique aspects of nursing is the intimate moments you sometimes share with your patients. I've heard admissions of hatred of family members, revelations of sexual exploits, and of course there's the usual cleaning of butts, weenies, and va-jay-jays... It's kind of like being the bartender at a pub your patrons never wanted to come to (and often times don't even know they're at).
