Different ways to administer medication

He wasn't even in the ER; it was just post-op recovery... they had him prescribed an IV, but the issue was we were completely out of the larger ones... and I know he’d have absolutely lost his mind if I hadn't made it work... honestly, he's the worst. Nobody can stand him... but yeah, there you go.

Honestly, if you’re dealing with a situation where medical staff is being bullied by certain doctors during IV starts, there’s this one super effective little trick. You just politely tell the "tyrant" that you aren't quite confident about the vein quality, then hand them the largest needle you can find on a silver platter—literally, go ahead and prep the alcohol and cotton balls too, just to be extra polite—and let them handle it themselves.
It’s especially funny because, according to the way things are supposed to work here in the States, actual physicians should be the ones handling all that "vascular management," even though we all know the nursing staff ends up doing the heavy lifting most of the time.
I mean, look, if you took 100 doctors in any major US hospital, I’d bet my life that at least 90 of them—maybe even more—wouldn't be able to hit a peripheral vein routinely, calmly, or skillfully. If you call their bluff like that, they won't mess up, and they'll definitely think twice before acting like a jerk next time.

I mean, what’s he gonna do? Lose his cool and kick me out on the street? I don't even work there full-time; I'm just an intern trying to learn the ropes...
