NSW hospital nurses rate patients rate annoying patient habits in TikTok game

A funny video of nurses rating patients’ habits has health care workers everywhere bonding over their pet peeves. 

The series of videos uploaded earlier this week shows NSW nurses playing the TikTok game ‘they’re a 10 but…’, which tests how many points a person loses for annoying habits.

Each clip starts with the nurses introduced by name and revealing their ratings.

For some nurses, patients who ‘buzz as soon as you leave the room’ received the lowest rating – a zero.

Not being able to swallow tablet copped 3 points. Asking to speak to the manager which saw a good patient who was a solid 10 get knocked back to a 0.95. 

However, the biggest blow was delivered by Sylvia who responded to ‘they’re a 10 but when you ask if they have any allergies they say ‘the hospital’. That was awarded a ‘lame’ out of 10.

Health care workers in the comments under the video shared their own ratings and habits.

‘They’re a 4 but they empty their own catheter bag and record the output for you,’ one commenter wrote.

‘All of these get a 0 from me,’ another said, of the list of peeves.

‘I got another one!! When you ask if they wear hearing aids and they say (with a smirk)… ‘pardon?’,’ another wrote.

‘They’re a 10 but they borrow your pen and don’t give it back,’ another said.

The ‘they’re a 10 but…’ game has been going viral on TikTok this month with people rating anything and everything from people’s favourite foods to different greetings.

However, some videos under the trend have taken a nasty turn with the videos aimed at critiquing looks.

‘They’re a 10 but…’ has sparked controversy recently. Radio presenter Abbie Chatfield recently criticised a round of the’ game played by two AFL players, where they rated women based on their looks.

She slammed the AFL players’ behaviour as ‘locker room chat’.

She said the game of rating people based on their look was ‘gross’ and reflective of how the stars ‘ speak in everyday life’.

‘They see nothing wrong with it, and all the boys would laugh at it,’ she said.

‘This is their sense of humour, this is what they think is funny and this is how locker room chat and this boys’ club thing is so pervasive because they just think it’s funny and they think it’s so normal because they are in the echo chamber.’
