The day an 84 year old beat me up

November 28th, 2009 Sarah 4 comments

Yesterday at work, there was a patient on my side who was demented but apparently had been really nice all day.  The nurse went in to take out his IV and he kissed her hand bc he liked her so much.  Then, she went to pull off the tape taping down the IV and he went crazy.  He hit her and I heard her call for help so I went in along with another nurse.I tried to hold him down, and he grabbed my arms and started digging his fingernails in.  The other nurse was helping me pry him off when he kicked me in the chest.  That pushed me back and kind of knocked out my breath, and while I was standing back he grabbed the nurse and started doing the same to her arm and then tried to bite her.  I went back to help her pry him off and he kicked me in the shoulder.  Eventually we got him calmed down, put a diaper on (he was naked…thankfully he didn’t pee on me!), and got him changed and out the door.

An 84 year old man beat up 3 girls and his son at once.  Impressive.

I’m heading to the gym…
