Are all visiting nurses creepy?

On Tuesday and Wednesday, at the hospital's suggestion, we had a visiting nurse come to check up on Ian.

Personal opinion: Totally worthless.

During the first visit, I watched Kristin nearly crawl to the ceiling as she watched the nurse suddenly stick her finger in Ian's mouth and casually comment, "Oh!  Well, he's got some good suction!"  REALLY!?  Maybe this is a common technique, but I thought it very odd.  To be fair, I witnessed this nurse sanitize her hands when she arrived—Kristin had not.

So after all her measuring and consulting, she was wondering if we wanted her to come back, but seemed more concerned about the copay we would have.  Lady, if there's a medical need for you to come out, then by all means do so... don't let a stupid $30 copay stop you!

How do we know these people aren't just freaks that go out and buy a set of scrubs and a stethoscope!?!?
