True story, in 1995 I had to do morning portables in the ICU and one of them was chest decubs on an elderly vented patient. I got one done, and when we rolled her to do the second she coded, and ended up passing away right then and there. I was traumatized for a long time after that. I was only 24 at the time and 8.5 months pregnant.

If I had a dollar for every time a nurse helped me place a board, I’d have negative dollars. Debt. No monies 😂

Trust me, all us rad techs hate making patients uncomfortable. Especially on those bony, kyphotic patients where their spine is holding their body weight on the board.

As a X-ray tech, thank you for staying to help lift. Also, the “cold and hard board” is a pain to place behind a patient with no sheet behind their back. Don’t get me started with the waffle
