Locationitis

Locationitis, commonly referred to as Nothing To Do In This Town disease is the most common strain of Restless Nurse Syndrome. Nurses suffering from the Locationitis strain become delusional and their mind begins to slowly convince them that they are living in a different, often more exotic or exciting location.

Under many circumstances this can be a harmless distraction for her coworkers, but in extreme cases it can be dangerous. When the nurse sees herself in a climate that is vastly different from her actual climate the nurse may unknowingly expose herself and her patients to dangerous weather extremes. For instance a nurse living in North Dakota in the winter who believes she is living in Florida can suffer severe frostbite while sun tanning.

Other symptoms of Locationitis include the involuntary adoption of accents from other parts of the country and in some cases the nurse will behave as a tourist in their own hometown.
