In my greener years, I wasn't that familiar with urostomies. Guy comes in, his isn't draining. I gather supplies, head in with the doc to change catheters. Nothing for me to do, so I stand at the foot of the bed 'learning'...until the doc pulled the old catheter out. Shot all the way to where I was standing. I ended up in the doc's lounge taking a shower, washing my face & hair, wearing a spare pair of OR scrubs someone scrounged up for me. We call this 'a lesson learned'.
