20 Gross Medical Pictures for Nurses to Gross Out Their Friends | NURSING.com

Nurses are weird right?  Often times at dinner with my family I’ll get going on (what I think is) a great story . . . only to have my family start screaming . .  “Stop! We’re eating”.

• Call it desensitization.
• Call it morbid curiosity.
• Call it . . . just being a nurse.

But we seem to thrive and enjoy seeing or hearing morbid pictures/stories.  As an ICU nurse I love seeing the pictures . . . my mind automatically switches into trauma mode.  I start thinking about how I would treat the patient, what meds, bandages, etc is this patient going to need to improve.

I just thrive in the trauma setting, the business, the life-or-death situations.  Call me crazy . . . I don’t think you will though . . . because you’re a nurse too . . . and we are all a bit crazy!
