I worked in a hospital clinic years ago, and grabbed the next patients chart to come back. I went out in the Lobby, looked at the name and said..."Holy Makeral"

PSYCHIATRY (what else!?) You'd have to go into psychiatry after your parents made you crazy with a name like John John.

In a facility I worked for a while back, I admitted a patient by the name of Kenny Wood. The following night I admited Ida Wyle. The funny part? Kennywood and Idawild,,,two local amusement parks.

My favorite one was when I went to the ER waiting room and called my patient in.. The air was light, mood was good in the waiting room (for a change).. I called out (not thinking) "James Brown!!" and I hear this chorus throughout the waiting room... "I FEEL GOOOOOOOOOOD NANANANANANANAAAAAAAAAAA... THE WAY THAT A SHOULD NANANANANANANAAAAAAAA"....

My patient got quite a good laugh about it, thankfully he had an awesome sense of humor and said he gets that quite often, and has learned to take it in stride..whew! (next time, I think I'll just ask for Mr. Brown..hehe)

THIS IS A TRUE STORY RELAYED TO ME BY ONE OF OUR NURSES:
A CRACK ADDICTED MOTHER CAME IN TO HAVE HER BABIES....SHE DID, AND THEY WERE TWINS.
UPON SOBERING UP BECAME ANGRY THAT THE NICU NURSES NAMED HER BABIES


MOLLY AND FEMOLLY (PHONETIC SPELLING)




ACTUAL SPELLING---MALE AND FEMALE

We have resident on our floor and his name is Seymore Weiner. The doctor should have slapped his mother instead when he was born! What a crack head!!!
