IV"HEY CATHY, HOW'S IT going?"
"Fine, Detective Johnson, how's the real world?"
"Call me Reg, OK?"
"OK, Reg-OK - how's the real world" She smiled at her own joke. Something that lightened her tired face.
I had to smile at that, which just made hers wider. "At least you've got some time for humor, even if sleep is tight."
"Sleep is always tight for nurses, but we make do."
"Well, over to questions, then. I've been over and over your reports and I just don't get it. How come you and your students don't get sick from what your patients have?"
"We've been over this ground before, Reg. It's our proprietary training and our faith in that training."
"But you don't seem to be doing anything different, other than you ignore safety protocols and do what seems to be normal nursing actions."
