HI
JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE THIS FUNNY MOMENT WHICH HAS NOW HAPPENED TO ME TWICE.
ONE OF OUR YOUNGER NURSES TOOK IT UPON HERSELF TO ORDER NEW FLAVOURED MOUTHWASH. IT CAME IN THE USUAL MINT BUT THEN ALSO RASPBERRY AND ORANGE. I HAVE TO SAY THAT THE ORANGE JUST TASTES LIKE NORMAL ORANGE JUICE AND PATIENTS HAVE OFTEN ASKED ME IF IT IS A DRINK OR A MOUTHWASH...
ANYWAY HAD JUST DONE EXAM S&P ON PATIENT...WHO THEN REACHED FOR THE MOUTHWASH....AT WHICH POINT I HAD MY BACK TURNED AND WAS WASHING UP AT THE SINK ONLY TO HEAR "UGH THIS MOUTHWASH TASTES LIKE FAIRY LIQUID"....QUICKLY STARING AT THE DENTIST AND THEN GLANCING AT MY SHELF ONLY TO SEE THE PINK HIBISCRUB AND MOUTHWASH (WHICH ARE KEPT IN AN ALMOST IDENTICAL BOTTLES )SITTING NEXT TO EACH OTHER!!!
YEP SHE HAD JUST HAD A NICE GULP OF HIBISCRUB!!!
QUICK GET THE COSHH FILE OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO YOU CAN GUESS AT TEA BREAK I COULD NOT RESIST TEA? COFFEE ?HIBISCRUB ANYONE...
I AM SUCH A CALAMITY SOMETIMES...LUCKILY SHE NEVER SUSSED AND I QUICKLY CHANGED IT..AND WHEN SHE LEFT WE WERE IN HYSTERICS...GOOD JOB MY LOVELY FEMALE DENTIST HAS A SENSE OF HUMOUR...
