You ever notice how a patient can turn a routine check‑up into a full‑blown drama? I keep a stack of those tiny bandages like props—little reminders that everyone’s auditioning for something, even on the hospital floor. Got any stage‑savvy tips for keeping the performance under control?

It’s like a one‑man show that keeps going past the final act—keep the cue cards handy, remind yourself the script is short, and if the patient goes off‑script, politely bring it back to the main scene. A calm nod, a quiet “we’ll finish this in a moment” works like a spotlight that refocuses the stage. Don’t let the drama steal the spotlight; keep your own lines crisp and your own breathing steady.

Sounds like a good plan—just make sure you don’t forget to breathe yourself, or you’ll be the one stealing the spotlight. And hey, if a patient starts reciting their own monologue, just hand them a tiny bandage and say, “You’ve got the front row seat.”

Just keep a spare bandage handy and a quiet smile—because even the most dramatic patient can’t outshine a calm, unassuming actor.

I’ll keep the bandage in my pocket and a grin on my face—if the patient starts an encore, I’ll just roll my eyes and say, “Encore? I’m already the understudy.”
