Ask Nurse Redheart

I just realized that we don't have an ask pony thread for best background pony.

 

Feel free to ask questions to your favorite pony nurse.

What's a normal day like for you?

What's a normal day like for you?

 

Hello there.

 

When i have my early shift, i wake up about 6 AM and do my usual morning routine. I then leave around 7 AM to go to the Ponyville hospital, so that i can be there around 7:30 AM. I go into my office to prepare everything for the day and to see who get's what treatment. I spent the day from 8 till 12 doing mostly checkups, especially for colts and fillies (most of them are too lazy to go to school.)

 

After my lunchbreak, i go around the Hospital to check on the patients. Checking their health, if they have any needs, or other more "special" needs (washing Rainbow Dash can be a pain sometimes). This pretty much goes on until 5 PM. If there isn't any over time, i can go home. I go to Sugarcube corner to get myself a cupcake for the way home. When i am home, i relax myself with a good book, or i meet myself with friends. This goes on till 11 PM and then i go to sleep, preparing myself for the next work day.

Hi there! Can you imagine yourself taking on any other job, if you weren't a nurse?

Hello there.

 

I thought about going to college again and trying to become a dentist. But then i thought i would probably die one day, looking into ponies rotten mouths everyday.

 

So, i rather stay with my nurse job, because atleast i don't need to look a horse in the mouth.

[Mesme Rize 15,687]

Would you give me a tetnis booster?

 

Hello there.

 

What is a Tetnis Booster? Are you sure that you ask the right mare?

[Sazama Ichida 2,367]

I'm so glad you finally made it to the Ask Section!

Can you give me some advice on how to avoid getting sick when the weather and climates change please?

Hello there. Sorry for the late reply.

 

It's always important to increase your immune system. A healthy pony with a strong immune system can actually endure a sudden weather change.

 

Always take alot of Vitamin C, which is a real immune system booster. You can find alot of that in Citrus fruits like Lemons or oranges. It's also good to prevent colds and flus.

 

Also, go to the doctor for regular checkups, i really can't stress this enough.

 

I hope i could help you.

That's sorta what I've been doing. ^^; My bad I guess I should've mentioned my symptoms. Usually when the weather and climates change I get things like headaches, cough and congestion and sore throat. Do you know what I can do to prevent this? ^^;

Well, if you don't want to grab for the usual medicine, you should drink alot of water to fight your problems. A great way to stop congestion, is to drink a glass of warm water in the morning, without having eatin anything before. It's important that you drink atleast 2 litres a day, it helps to clean your blood in your body.

 

Hope i could help.

Intriguing. I shall have to remember this. Thank you!

[Mesme Rize 15,687]

It's no problem. Just stay healthy.

Miss Redheart, have you ever thought of leaving Ponyville to work somewhere else?

Hello there.

 

No way. I once got an offer for a position in Canterlot. But it's way too crowdy there. It's very calm here in Ponyville and i know most of the patients that come in and out of the Hospital.

[Sazama Ichida 2,367]

My throat is now feeling hot and I'm beginning to show symptoms of bronchitis...Any advice? ^^;

Hmm, could be bronchitis. Do you have any other problems?

[Sazama Ichida 2,367]

A bit of a cough with pale yellow mucus with it.

[Mesme Rize 15,687]

A bit of a cough with pale yellow mucus with it.

 

I would say that it is Bronchitis, since the yellow mucus might look like that it comes from a virus. But since i can't listen to your lungs, i can't be 100% sure.

 

If you want to be sure, you should go to a real doctor, who can do an examination on you.

 

What i can recommend are lots of vitamins and fluids. Get plenty of rest, especially if you get a fever, which can come with a bronchitis. Maybe also some antibiotics, if it's an acute Bronchitis.

 

There are different types of Bronchitis and each type is treated different.

 

Hope i could somewhat help you.

Nurse Redheart,

Has Spike the Dragon been one of your patients?

[Mesme Rize 15,687]

Nurse Redheart,

Has Spike the Dragon been one of your patients?

 

Hello there.

 

Let me say it this way. He dosen't like needles very much.

 

When i poked him with the needle, he started to scream fire out of his mouth. Twilight was generous enough, to pay for my Wig.

Can't blame him, not every pony can stand needles. Um two more questions:

1. How do you get needles through his thick scales?

2. Has Spike help you around Ponyville?

1. Our hospital is has special syringes that are made out of sharp diamonds. They are so strong, that they even go through dragon scales.

 

2. No and i don't think he likes me, or any of the staff very much. Twilight had to drag him to the hospital.

I'm sure Spike likes you, it's probably the needles he's not fond of.

Any way, moving on, when Rainbowdash was in the hospital with an injured wing, I didn't see you, where you off that day or working on a different floor?
