Zippy Goes to Work!

I’m off to work with Kim!

She says I can be a nurse for a night!

She didn’t have any scrubs small enough for a lobster, so she let me borrow her Barbie nurse’s cap and cape.

I’m just about ready to jump out of Kim’s bag and get to work!

Now where did I put that stethoscope?

*****

First, I have to get report from the other nurses.

They tell me about all the patients in the emergency department!

Luckily things aren’t very busy tonight. Hope it stays that way!

*****

Sounds like we’re going to be getting a patient!

I’m taking report over the radio from the ambulance.

I hope the patient isn’t having an allergic reaction to lobsters!

Whew! The patient is only allergic to shellfish!

Wait, that’s me!

Uh oh!

*****

Patient safety comes first!

Every good lobster nurse makes sure to wash their hands before they take care of patients!

It takes me a long time to wash because I have so many claws!

At least this lotion will keep them soft!

*****

No germs are allowed in the emergency department.

This means the emergency department is very clean, all the time.

The housekeeper just finished washing the floor in this room.

I will put up this “Wet Floor” sign so people won’t slip on the floor!

Remember, safety comes first!

*****

I need to get a medicine out of the medicine machine for our patient.

I just push the button and take the medication out!

It’s like a computer.

This is fun!

*****

It’s time for me to write down all the information for my shift.

It’s almost time for us to go home.

I hope I remember all the important stuff we did tonight!

I’m tired and ready for…

*****

Coffee!

This is a fresh pot.

I sure had fun working in the emergency department tonight!

We took care of a lot of people.

I’m glad I got to help!
