My report this morning:
“So, this guy here has active TB. He’s been hacking like a motherfu–”
“Excuse me. Did you say, ‘active TB?’”
“Yeah, he has active TB.”
“Is that his nurse in there?”
“Yes.”
“With no respirator?”
“…well, she says it hurts her face, so she’s not going to wear it.”
*long pause*
“Excuse me again. I think I need to make a few phone calls. Does anybody know the number for employee health?”
You’d think that those of us who work in the ICU environment would maybe have a smidgen of common sense, but evidently we do not.
