They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so during Nurses Week 2016, we asked our Funny Nurses family to fill in the blank after “You know you’re a NURSE when…” (above) and we got some pretty great responses! We think you’ll relate – see below:
You know you’re a NURSE when…

2. You hear the sound of an alarming IV pump in your sleep! – Katie Holmes
3. You have to correct all the medical mistakes on TV shows, out loud. – Amy Jaquita Mullins
4. You can discuss color, odor, and consistency of bodily fluids over lunch. – Cassie Ngo
5. When seeing someone not wash their hands is more disgusting to you than seeing bodily fluids. Wash your hands!! – Krystle Mae Santos
6. When you’re watching a horror movie and someone cuts themselves, and the first thing you say is “Damn he’s gonna get an infection.” – Alexandra Connell
