Random Question

Random Question: What is the reason why most hospitals have their surgical unit on the 2nd floor, Labor and Delivery on the 3rd floor, Medical-Surgical Unit on the 4th floor, Telemetry Unit on the 5th floor and Orthopedic on the 6th floor?

Ours isn't set up that way but ortho is on the 6th floor LOL

All i can tell your mind is playing tricks or it might be a coincidence.

I don't work in a hospital but my Mom did for 25 years. From what I remember ortho is on 7, telemetry on 8 and neuro and peds on 6. I especially remember that because there was quite some controversy when the hospital decided to float staff between neuro and peds, some nurses quit over that. No clue where NICU is, but they need to have easy access to the helipad because that is the unit all flight nurses work on.

Oh noes! My hospital only has three floors and my former one only 4.
