Nurses frequently collect specimens including urine, stool and sputum. They may also perform venepuncture to collect blood samples and support patients through complex procedures to collect specimens, such as biopsies.

Nurses clean up poop whenever it is needed. Sometimes patients can't help themselves. Nurses would say at least each shift , they clean up something from someone. Vomit, poop, pee, whatever the case. People aren't always continent and don't always hit the emesis basin and they sometimes even lose control of their bladders/bowels and sometimes it just happens so fast. So as a Nurse, you will clean up poop and vomit. It's a fact of the job!

Thankyou
