Funny Sign In Slips

[TraumaInTheSlot]

Some ER's have patients who walk in to triage fill out a triage slip with name and chief complaint. they are always interesting due to misspellings and funny things that people write. care to share some funny ones with us?

Working in England, my crazy co-worker took a phone call once -

"My son just stood on a hedgehog, can you help?"

She replied -

"Sorry, mam, we don't treat hedgehogs"

. . . .and hung up.

She could not see why we were all falling about laughing!

I am going to quote word for word from a friend I work with:

"On the manliness scale today while in triage: a FAT zero goes to the 21 year old with a chief complaint of 'hungover.' Really? Couldn't even state "nausea/vomiting" for us. Huh. And on the opposite side, a solid 10 goes to the guy with a GSW to the member: member intact and functional (small entrance wound in the shaft), bullet shattered. Discharged by urology."

HOLY MOLE.
