also a nurse here, Can affirm... that there IS usually a box (like on TV show Scrubs) that has items that were removed from people. And yes, some of the things are disturbing... AND they are often repeat offenders... Did my head in...

some of them even got our 30 year old nurse unit manager veteran to lower her glasses and say... "well... after 30 years surprises are... uncommon... but that... that is a surprise..." lol

I have heard a few stories from some nurse friends also. It seems the thing that unites all cultures, is that some percentage like to experiment with what they can put into themselves.
