New hospital mock training drills

Published

Specializes in N/A.

My wife will be moving to their brand new facility soon. They are moving from an old small facility to a HUGE one. They will be taking on more doctors so therefore their patient load should increase dramaticly.

They are conducting practice drills where women show up in labor (fake of course) so they can get used to admitting them etc. They have a new video entry system so the only people that can get in the door are either badge access personnel or people approved via the camera/intercom.

What I want to do is show up with a pillow under my shirt pretending to be a pregnant lady. What I need your help with is the correct terminology. I want to really test their prepardness so please give me the words to say to make me a nightmare patient. No prenatal care, speak a foreign language....whatever.

They will prob just laugh at me and send me home but if they start asking questions then I want to be ready with some answers.

Thanks, this will be great. I promise to come back and post the responses. lol.

Please leave the training drills to the professionals.

Security and administration are not likely to see the humor in your visit.

You wouldn't want that to reflect upon your wife and her good relationship with her employer.

Are there really professional mock people? If so where can I find them? Is there like a mock association?

Ok so won't do it. But I would still like to know what makes one patient more difficult/challenging than another. Jolie, can you at least tell me that?
