My step-mom was a mean Nurse. Always in a contentious situation with her job, always speaking really aggressively. After she passed away I found several letters to her from patients thanking her for fighting the system for their benefit. She really went above and beyond for her patients, often by getting into it with her hospital.

Such an innocent person to start with, “are those cherry tomatoes.” 🤣

just finished this show and 10/10 would recommend. Most accurate depiction of a highly functioning addict. left me in tears

the way he doubles over in side splitting laughter when she tosses the ear made me so happy. no ethical speech just a legit funny reaction.

“No they’re not cherry tomatoes, she’s doing lines”-Dr Mike

“He put a firework in his butt? “

An ER nurse being able to go out to lunch is one of the funniest things about that episode.

As a young nurse, I experienced a situation where a 17 yr old young man with a sports knee injury lost his leg after surgery. The surgeon, who was called by the head nurse, and told that the leg was swelling in the cast, that the patient was in pain, please come and open the case. The doctor refused to come. No other doctor would touch him. He lost his leg.

“He made pancakes this morning”

SOMEONE GET THIS MAN BUNNY SCRUBS

“Riding a bike is extremely dangerous”

Mike:

Her: He made me pancakes this morning...

"Are those cherry tomatoes?" You're so innocent, it's adorable 😂

Nurse Jackie:

I have to say this. To openly admit to working with "mean nurses" but defending them out of realization for their patients' defense , yet possessing such charisma about the medical field is astounding. Man, I wish i can have this positive outlook on life.

“Maybe you can notice the tan.” I really couldn’t I’m sorry Mike.

She protec

I agree with the mean nurse thing. I got my nurse aide certificate so I could work in old folks homes, I ended up becoming a nanny instead but while I was on the program there was a older woman who had to renew her certificate. She was on the stern side, sassy, straight forward, etc. During the final exam I almost failed, and I was the last person in the lab doing the exam. it was my last try on the lab exam, and I began to tear up and she came in, took my hand, and walked me around outside. she just talked about the weather, holidays coming up, her kids. and then I went back in and passed. it was so touching and wonderful for her to do that I will never forget it.

When I was having a miscarriage, they were extremely sweet, respectful, and comforting... but when my legs were up the stirups they had there was a window on the door and they had the curtain drawn halfway... i could see out the window and despite the amount of pain i was in, i was praying no one would walk by that window!! not to mention one of them opened the door and stood halfway outside of it to talk to someone..
