[randomnamees]

An Accident and Emergency Department in Birmingham boasts a Nurse Payne

Nurse Hacker scrubs regularly in a London Operating Department

Sister De'Ath walks the corridors of a hospice in Victoria

Does Annie Beaver still work in Obstetrics in New York?

Mrs. Ake, a retired RN, was a specialist nurse in rheumatology

Kathy Foley was the head of the Catheter Insertion Team (back when they had those in the old days).

Dr Hui (pronounced "Wee") was a urologist whose wife, a nurse, worked as his office manager. Her name was Pi (pronounced "Pee"). Nurse Cox worked for a different team.

Chris Feely always favoured complementary therapies - especially therapeutic massage, while Nurse Fang was more at home with Cosmetic Surgery.

Ed worked with a nun who's last name was Fuchs. He did not know how to pronounce her name - so he asked. And he wanted to die.

Mary Slaughter could never get a post on the Surgical Unit, and Nurse Cutts was never the 'First Pick' Midwife.

Sharon Ward - when she gets promoted - will be Sr. Ward.

Not forgetting Melina, who works on a general medical ward and Nurse Nurse - she goes where she's sent!

Last week I floated to another unit, and I thought the girls were playing a joke. I picked up the chart of a Mr. Harry Butz!

In our ER we also have a nice looking Dr. Bunz.

I was napping onthe drive back from Orlando last spring. I woke up when the others in the car were laughing....there was a sign....I swear that said:

LAKE UROLOGY....

I kind of did a doubletake. There was a lake, but it was really for a doctors' office. Oh well....imagine the mental pictures though.

OK, here's mine,

We've had a patient named Harry Dick (no joke)

Used to have a Dr. Dakters

Used to have a Dr. Gaddipatti (overhead operators made it sound like gotta potty)

And the finale, my last name is Kushen (sounds like cushion) and we once had a supervisor who started calling me pin (my first name is Lynn), therefore I'm Pin Kushen to my coworkers. My daughters hate it when I mention that I considered naming them Whoopi!:)
