It's me again...Also had a patient in psychiatry. His name was Joe Blosus! Between Seymour Weiner and Joe Bloesus, no wonder they both ended up on the psych unit...The kids probably teased the H*LL out of them which drove them absolutely "sChIzO-CrAzY!"

My mom went to high school with a girl named...Candy Barr...How sweet...
I used to babysit for a couple that named their daughters...Candice (Candy) and Crystal...I am dure they were drug users...guess they needed to be reminded of their "drug of choice". Pathetic!

OneChattyNurse reminded me...........I went to school with a girl named Candy (Candace) Kaine. Luckily she was a very levelheaded girl with a great sense of humor.

In the NICU we frequently make a sign (or the parent's will) with the baby's first name on it. Kinda personalizes the baby plus it's pretty.
We had a baby GIRL named Montserrat. Kinda strange...but to each their own. BUT, by the end of a 12 hour shift, you just have to look at the sign an extra second because the letters run together and it starts to look like it says "Monster rat." And, unfortunately she was referred to by that name a few times. Luckily she wasn't in the NICU long.

We had a bed manager wanting to know if we had a pt, a Mr Potter, Mr. Harry Potter,
And he couldn't understand why were laughing! (Incidently he had annoyed a bank nurse earlier in the day, and this was her revenge! Kudos to her)
I was in our ER Dept., the day the Harry Potter movie opened. I heard a overhead page "would Harry Potter please walk through the double doors and turn left". This is the way patients walk into the peds area. One of the doctors was a Harry Potter Nutcase and was having fun!!!! :rolleyes:
