Funny Sign In Slips

Published

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?

ill go first, one girl wrote as her symptoms...."east infection"

Specializes in many.

I used to work in a jail and imates would come up with some amazing stuff. Lots of guys with poor education and even more with poor English skills. My favorite of all time was the boy with a "sore trout". Still makes me laugh out loud!

I work on a Cardiac floor.. I asked my patient what activity he was doing when he experienced chest pain.. He replied ummm it was either cocaine or crack.

In my ER it isn't so much the patients we have to watch out for...it's the medics! If there's a particular nurse in triage they want to play with, they'll sign in a name like "Rea, Gonoh" and she is that gullible to say the name out loud IN THE CORRECT ORDER! Or they'll sign in the name of their favorite cartoon character.

We don't have sign in, either, but some of our favorites are:

I need a technical shot, stepped onna nail: My gouch is actin up: I keep feelin like I'm gonna fall out cuzz I got high blood; and I had a seizure this morning (or yesterday) and I want to be checked out...when asked if they are taking their antiseizure meds, they ALWAYS say "not this lately, I ran out a good while ago" . Well..duh....what's a good while ago? week? month? I want to tell them if they can't be responsible for their health, then they can't expect me to fix them when they mess up.

Also had someone call in and ask if "do that technical shot help if you get exposed to amtrax?" LOL....uh huh..if you are exposed to amtrax, the technical shot will save you!!

So not a sign in slip...but a phone call....

Patient: "Hi I was wondering if your ER was busy right now?"

Me: "Sir the waiting room is empty right now, but that could change any minute"

Patient:"Ok, well my doctor said I have some sort of hernia or something, I wanted to see how busy you were before I come in"

Me: "well, like I said its empty now, but that could change"

Patient: "so what you're saying is if I hurry my herniated @$$ up I'll be ok?"

:chuckle :chuckle :chuckle
