A FERN is a nickname given to a nurse who works in emergency medicine, standing for "Fucking ER Nurse". FERNs are a special breed of nurses. They are rough, ornery, and house a level of sarcasm that can only be matched by the EMT allies. Their shifts are fueled by Bangs, 18 G needles, and their last fuck to give. They have no problem telling you that they do not give a flying fuck about the skin assessment of a healthy and ambulatory 28 year old, here for Cholecystitis". They also do not care that your are unhappy with a line in the AC (because the line was placed for the contrast dye used in the PE work-up, not your maintenance fluids). FERNs are best known for their resourcefulness, capability to run a code better than most Attendings, sick and dark sense of humor, and a cutthroat stare that could burn a hole straight through you.
-"The downstairs nurse called 5 times to give report, neglected to replace a K+ of 3.4, and stated "she's ambulatory" when I asked what the patient's skin looked like. What a FERN".
-"I wouldn't fuck with her/him. They are a FERN".
-"I wouldn't fuck with her/him. They are a FERN".

Get the FERN mug.Fernando is a big ole goofball with a heart of gold. His smile will warm your heart and he will do anything to make sure you are taken care of and safe. Fernando has the greatest style and always leaves the house looking so fly. He loves to teach and help others, and he will keep you laughing for life. You will never meet another like him. He’s a one of a kind, handsome human who will bring out your inner child. Nerdy for sure, but wise beyond his years and so independent. If you know a Fernando, remind him how loved and important he is and how PROUD you are of him.
