It does happen JK. If a patient tells me their husband or boyfriend is a nurse and they want him to give them the shot then that is what I let them do. We do that in our ER and it is failryl common. It is their butt that is getting a needle and if they trsut the person then that is fine with me. I would prefer someone I no to give me the shot that a complete stranger. I have been a nurse for 28 years so this is not something new here.

No Tim. They should bring the vial in with a syringe so that you can verify it. If they truly are a nurse they will ask about allergies before giving the injection.

Hi,
So let me get this straight. This is new knowledge to me. If I am a nurse, I can go into any hospital and ask to administer medication to someone as long as I have the permission of the attending ER nurse or PA etc? And this is especially true if I actually know the patient personally? So if the Administration of the Hospital learned of this, it would be okay. No one did any wrong and no one would be written up. I never knew that. You taught me something new.....Thanks

If it is your family member or a close friend who asked you to give them the shot. Not just anyone. Again the nurse at the hospital would have to honor the request. I always have my license so I can show them I am a nurse.
