Funny/Strange things other hospital employees have done????

.......This particular night I was transporting a body and the door was unlocked. I opened it, someone sat up on a stretcher, and moaned. I screamed, peed my pants, and slammed the door.

It was one of the security guards! I just about slapped him! Luckily, we were in the basement, so no one heard me scream but linens (and its a good thing too, because I needed a new pair of scrubs)

Very short, very skinny, missing a few teeth.

Seriously.

I worked on the hematology floor of a large midwestern teaching hospital a few decades ago. We had an exam room at the far end of the floor, and if the exam room door were open at the same time as the double doors leading into our unit, everyone in the elevator lobby could have a good look . . . .

I was told to set up the exam room for a pelvic on my patient. So I dutifully went off to set up the exam room. I whipped the door open, turned on the lights, and to my horror saw the naked hairy arse of a man who turned out to be the medical director of the ER and beyond and below him, the pale, stricken face of our director of nurses, both of whom were married to other people. I was so shocked I just stood there with my mouth (and the door) hanging open. At that precise moment, the double doors (automatic doors) swung open, just as an elevator was dispersing a large crowd of people!

He kept his job; she didn't.

Being asked, in all seriousness, if we can add a CBC and INR to a blood culture drawn earlier in the day. When told "NO!", then being asked " so, does that mean we have to stick the patient again?" The ward clerk who asked me this was a former nurse!
