SNF - We pronounce it like the word "sniff". The abbreviation translates to "Skilled Nursing Facility". Sad to say, but long-term care facilities are commonly colonized, along with their patient population, by a vast variety of infectious, communicable cooties.

The C-diff Song

She came from the Sniff
With a case of C-diff
We weren't surprised
By that occurrence, not a bit,
Oh, but that smell, it did offend
Forever, without end
Just imagine 12 hours of that shit;

Any Nurse worth their salt
Would surely, ponder the gestalt
As if some evil apparition, dogged their trail,
Just by walking in the door
At eighteen-hundred, forty-four
They'd be dealt, the shit assignment, without fail;

They realize, it all depends
On humble beginnings and horrid ends
Who's in charge, the night they both will work together,
Because crappy assignments, seem to follow
With smiley platitudes that all ring hollow
It's just another night to bear the cross and leather;

Gown and mask, booties and glove
There's nothing better, when you're in love
Enjoy it, over and over, all night long,
When you get home, and notice the booties
You will feel like you're covered in cooties,
That's the way it goes, when you dance the C-diff song.

Fibril-late;
