Bonus perk to OB and L&D, besides the happy-happy joy-joy stuff and everyone’s in a good mood and telling a patient “Congratulations” gains you instant rapport with them: some of the best ice to chew on can be found in the L&D and post-partum floors. As an avid ice cruncher, good ice makes all the difference.
Still first place ice in my heart: my grandmother’s old nursing home (but this will likely always be number one, as me getting my grandmother ice was one way I felt like I could make her feel better).
We just had a 5.6er here, felt by everyone in the hospital. Lacking any semblance of survival instincts, I randomly just start walking down the hall. Let’s hope there’s no aftershocks.
