In fact, it’s pretty easy once you know the basics.

Once upon a time, I was at a friend’s house and we were all hanging out in the living room.

My friend, who is a nurse, had just gotten a new pulse oximeter and she was showing it off to everyone.

I was intrigued and asked if I could use it.

She handed it to me and said, “Sure, just put it on your finger and wait for the reading.

” I put it on my finger and waited.

and waited.

and waited.

Nothing happened.

I looked at my friend confused and she burst out laughing.

“You have to turn it on first, silly!” she said.

The moral of the story? Always make sure your pulse oximeter is turned on before taking a reading!
