Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Nurses II

So he was in what we would call seven point restraints. So he had a belt around his waist. He had this piece of fabric that kind of comes up like a diaper that attaches to the waist and it keeps him from sliding down in bed, getting strangled by it. Seen that before. He had both of his wrists restrained, both of his ankles restrained to the bed.

And then he was so wild and head butting that he had a chest strap on. And we have to have the bed elevated a little bit because when they're getting tube fed, if they're laying flat, it can put them at risk of choking. So he had the head of the bed up and we had the chest strap there. Also, this man had what we call posy mitts on.

Armchair Anonymous: Nurses II

So picture giant puffy oven mitts that are like velcroed to their hands. They can't grab or squeeze or scratch or anything. So it's just like boxing. That's the first part is the visualization of this is how this poor man lived for weeks. Oh, wow. He put three separate people on injury leave while being that level of restraint from kicking, punching.

Armchair Anonymous: Nurses II

It's really awful, but I kind of liken it to picture just like a rabid rescue animal in a cage. They don't know what's going on. They're just fighting you. So that was this man to this day, one of the most wild ones I've looked after. So the shift that this happened was on a night shift. I was new and my partner was new. So her and I had both been on this job for like maybe a few months.

Armchair Anonymous: Nurses II

And it's in an observation room. So there's four patients. There's two nurses. It's close observation. So it's intended for really sick patients or really kind of wild, thrashy patients that you need to have eyes on at all times. Our nursing station's 15, 20 feet away from all of their beds. We can see what's going on at all times. My partner was on break at one o'clock in the morning.

The lights are all off because it's nighttime. We want them all to sleep. And I go into this guy's room. He's heavily restrained. And I see a puddle of liquid on the floor, which is not that unusual in this job. So I turn the light on and I see that it's urine. And that's a bit unusual because he has a catheter in. Yeah, right.

And I can see he's covered up in a blanket still. I can see the catheter tubing's coming out as it should be. It's secured to the bottom of the bed, the bag, as it should be. So I'm like, where is this urine coming from? And I guess I'll stop here. Do you guys know how catheters get put in and are secured? No, you should tell us.
