Had a student tell me the other day that he couldn’t turn in his assignment because his pet goldfish was sick and needed a vet visit. I mean, I get it — leadership in nursing is important, but let’s leave the fish out of it! What’s the funniest excuse you’ve ever received from a student?
Tailoring analgesia for exotic pets is crucial. I’ve found that considering their unique metabolic rates helps — like how some reptiles take longer to process medications. It’s interesting how imaging can guide us on the right dosage too, especially when dealing with more sensitive species. @JaneDoe would probably agree that staying updated on individual species’ needs is key.
I once had a student claim their computer crashed because of a cat video marathon. It’s wild how creativity can take over when deadlines loom! Maybe they could’ve set up a backup plan — like using cloud storage — to avoid those last-minute freakouts. What’s the craziest excuse you’ve accepted?
Sounds like an interesting case, but I bet if the fish was truly that sick, it would be the perfect excuse to get into aquatically-focused nursing! @mray99, what do you think? Can we start a new course on fish care in nursing?
