Reasons to Riff:
1. Nurses must be able to do sit-ups in flower patterns (2:05)
2.They must wield giant glass IV bottles, which goes along with their mixology training (8:12), (3:08)
3. "Child nursing...requires a liking for children" (9:49) Genius.
I work at a nursing school and would LOVE to be able to share this with the students. In a competitive program like ours, students are under a lot of stress- they need a laugh or two!

Haha this brought back memories I remember watching something super similar when I was just figuring out how to become a nurse in the UK and thinking, “yep, I need to master sit ups in flower formation too!” Love how it highlights the quirks of the old training style. Honestly, becoming a nurse feels intense at times, especially when you are trying to sort out what qualifications you need to be a nurse in the UK. Totally get your students needing a laugh I am still on my own journey to become a nurse and clips like this keep the spirit light. Thanks for sharing.
