Use a play on the hospital name. The one at Keystrokes is KeyNotes. The one at a hospital I worked
named Great Valley Hospital was In The Valley. Take a main word in the name and just write down anything that comes to mind. Put a main word here and let us all give some play on words to it.
My plants died when husband still alive but after he died
surprisingly I grew lots of plants and still have them. My housekeeper says he was the devil and that is why the plants died. I was just as bad as you back then, killed artificial plants.
Another dead
They just reported on CNN that an 18-year-old girl died from the VT shooting.

It always freaked me out when they would say 'live cultures' when talking about yogurt.  Little tiny alive things in my yogurt....AHHHHH!!!!  LOL!!   I still eat yogurt - oh well!


Love him. He was also in Dead Like Me. nm

Believe it or not, I used to get it through the hospital ....
pharmacy when I worked in-house with a 30% discount. Still have friends who work in-house that get it for me at that price. Advantage works well for my cats.
We met at the hospital where we both
worked. I was happily dating one guy, and my hubby stole me away from the other one. He even proposed in the hall at the hospital, where he presented my ring to me, with me in my scrubs. We're still married 21 years later.
Hospital
I just quit a hospital job, too - one that I had been in for years (and years). They were changing over to Escript from Chartscript, and it was a disaster management-wise, and otherwise. I could have taken a job at MQ but turned it done - didn't want evening or weekends.
She needs to be in the hospital

Sorry, but the dog needs to stay where she is.  Parvo is highly contagious and very often fatal.  The dog needs constant monitoring by a trained staff, not a loving mom. 


Hope the baby gets better soon. Sorry to hear she came down with this.


Mom in hospital
Sorry about your mom. First of all, according to the new HIPPA laws, I don't think you can be told anything about her case, BUT she is entitled to be told anything that she asks and is supposed to get a clear, concise answer (key word being supposed). If I were you, I'd tell your mom what to ask and be there when she does to sort of guide her, etc. If she OKs it, they will tell her while you are in the room. I went through all of this 4 years ago when my husband was so sick. Good luck. Hope it works.
Fruitcake lLady dead. SM.

The fruitcake lady died this month.  Here are some clips, get ready to laugh:

I could not put this under comedy, even though it is.  There are some 4-letter words in these clips, nothing terrible. 


fox news is saying that anna is dead. i think it's very sad too. nm

Maybe we should not beat a dead hourse (sm)
Hopefully we can all agree that what works in one marriage may not in another?
Mine actually is dead (at least he's supposed to be).
He remarried several times. The last one was the same age as our son. He stole government checks from his mother's senior building and tried to pin it on my son by using his address (their names are the same). They did confuse my son with him and he almost got arrested. That was after he supposedly died. Funny, nobody in his family gave him a decent burial. Not one of them claimed the body. I know how his Mommy felt about him, so that was really suspicious. My son said he'd seen him getting on the homeless people van right before that. I will always wonder if he's really dead or if he's a murderer besides a lazy thief and wife-beating creep.
Dead skin floating around.
I thought about that last night as I was sitting at a restaurant. The light was shining through the window just right and I could see all sorts of dust particles in the air. To think that is settling on my food. Kinda gross.
Do you suppose the cat is dead and stuffed? nm

If you know anyone that works at a hospital, they
and wind up throwing the old ones away.  That is how I got one in my possession.  Old or not, it could still be resourceful at points even in our new wave of technology online.  Just a thought. 
Yep, me. I quit my hospital job sm
to work at home just because I got tired of some mean people in the office complaining I was always in the bathroom. Like I really wanted to be there.
General Hospital
I've been watching GH for years. What do you think about Elizabeth/Lucky/Jason? I'd like to slam Elizabeth. I feel sorry for Jason.
FIL in hospital. What questions should I ask? (SM)

My 72yo FIL was transferred to the trauma unit in a bigger city this past Saturday because of a fall and head injury he sustained Saturday morning.


Since he has been there (more than 48 hours now), he has not eaten and is not receiving a dextrose drip or the like through his IV. They only took complete x-rays, CT, and MRI on Sunday afternoon. The first time a doctor/resident evaluated him was on Sunday evening sometime after 9 p.m. Also, he is somewhat delusional. He knows his name and where he is, but he is grabbing at things in the air, wants to take the trash out, etc. This is definetly abnormal for him. He has always been alert and oriented.


My question is this: Should it take 36 hours before he is evaluated by a doctor? Is it normal not to give him any type of nourishment (no food, no IV) for more than 48 hours? Is it normal to wait 2 days to see a neurologist (who won't be in to see him until late today) when the main reason he was transferred was for neurology consult? I understand he went in on the weekend, but should it take this long to get answers.


Thanks for any insight you can provide.

hospital CEO's at fault too
Nurses not work when they are tired? Hospitals need to hire enough nurses so that won't be forced to work when they are tired- ARH nurses in our state are on strike right now fighting for this. about the Quaid babies, I agree the meds should be in totally different colored bottles.
She was in hospital almost a week before she had him...
Sorry I didn't mention that he took off a week before she had the baby. But yeah he has went back to work according to her mom. I think she is embarrassed about his feet but I have told her that she need not be he is a sweet adorable baby. How could someone make fun of a baby? When I do ask to speak to her her mom will say she is busy or something. I say well the baby must be really keeping her busy and her mom says no actually he sleeps most of the time. The baby was checked by the doctor and he said completely healthy baby other than the clubbed feet. I thought about dropping by but her mom had said that she just wished people would not come over. And one of my other friends "dropped" in and her mom called me and was kind of acting like they thought that was rude to come unannounced. So I don't know how to go about it. I did call during the time she has been home but her mom said her husband was off so I know she wouldn't talk. She is very strict about no phone calls when they are together. It is weird to me but she is a very good friend. But I would still call and ask her mom how her and the baby were anyway and some days her mom would call me just to chat. I don't know I kind of feel like I have lost my friend. I will have to send a card.
Hospital bill

As long as you pay something every month, there is nothing they can do to you.


I would not take my money out of the CD's or move it.  Just keep paying something every month. 


 


What does it being a Catholic hospital have to
everywhere. The place I used to work for, they were atheists and it was like working in hel* every day.
At the hospital where I worked there were

pampered chef, anything you wanted to buy, you could purchase all on company time.  There were also people that would sell dinner plates through their church.


This "daylighting" is nothing new.  I myself on breaks would "deliver typed reports to an internal office."  I stayed in the building, but I was on my break (not paid) or on lunch (not paid).  So, what's the difference?


Tell me this isn't true; anyone who has worked on-site knows it happens every day.


hospital ~ go figure!
I have it in my Expander to autocorrect.
When I worked in a hospital, I once
had a "stat" dictation on a patient in the ICU. At the beginning of the dictation, the doctor said to rush this up to the ICU the minute it was transcribed. It was a consult on this old man's watch that had a nude woman on it. One of the funniest things I ever typed. I worked 2nd shift, so we were responsible for the stat reports getting to the floor. When I took it up to ICU, all the nurses and the doctors there were just hysterical reading the report. The doctor did apologize to me for the "stat," but he was one of our fun doctors, so it was not a problem. I miss the good ole days when we actually knew who we were transcribing for and could actually speak to them face to face when we had problems with them.
When I worked at a hospital

as a nurse's aide, there were several episodes similar to that.  I was young about 19 to 20.  One particular episode, I went in and picked up a breakfast tray and asked the guy if he was ready for his shower.  He said yes, I told him I will be back with a new gown and towels.  He said okay.  When I came back in he was stripped down to nothing but his birth suit.  I put the towels down and went and told the other nurses about the incident.  Also, there was another man wanting me to wash his thing, KWIM.  If he were comatose or had both hands broken I would have to but there was not a thing wrong with this man and I refused.  I went and got another aide and asked her advice and she said she wouldn't either.   We told the nurse's and the doc about the incident and he wrote that up as an incident report.  


Usually men like that I took it that they had some screws loose. 


I don't think a hospital/MTSO would go
for that, someone doing it with NO experience more than likely, plus all the legal hoops they would have to jump through.
Mom has been in hospital for 2 weeks.

she went in with breathing problems, but the longer she was there the more issues came up.  She apparent came down with C. diff.  They started coming in with the yellow suits, for infectious disease precautions.  She finally asked why, and the nurse said according to her chart she had a history or MRSA with open wounds. I said WHAT.  The last problem she had with a wound was in 1987 with gallbladder surgery when she had a bile leak and some wound dehiscence.  MRSA was not even around then.  She has never been told anything about MRSA.


 


My question is:  Should I confront them and ask when this was diagnosed, and what the circumstances were.  I am wondering if this is another example of OFFSHORING records where mistakes were made.  I mean really, if this is an error I feel it should be corrected, and if not, why was she never told this?


I am so depressed about them finding James Kim dead. I am having a really sm

hard time grasping this that I can't imagine what his poor wife and family must be going through. I can't even move and want to read everything about them finding him, etc. if he only stayed in the car with them - He left Saturday morning to look for help and the found his wife and girls on Monday. And he was found dead today miles from where the car was found.


I guess I could thank God that his wife and 2 children are still alive. I am happy they are alive, but it just makes me unbelievably sad what he must have gone through. He had such a great will to live and yet he died out there.


 


I don't know if anyone out there reading this who lives in Oregon, but I certainly have zero desire to EVER venture out into the Oregon wilderness, now more so than ever. I've heard horror stories about one-lane, winding, extremely hazardous roads and I don't understand why the state won't fix that? This isn't the first family to go through something like this because a lot of maps are contradicting.


 


This should serve as a warning to anyone who wants to travel the Oregon mountains, especially in the wintertime - DON'T DO IT.


 


How tragic and sad.


he''s in charge is what it means since Anna is dead.....

Love your answer, dead on the money
All your suggestions good ones. I know from experience, and have posted this before, one day you will look around and wonder where in the world did the years go. You are in your 50s or 60s and you are losing so much. Time is very precious- it cannot be retrieved once gone. We only have this time to make bad or good choices, life just runs by you so fast and then you find yourself a senior citizen.
Marie's dead doll dance . . .
I kept on waiting for her to "start up", you know, come alive and start really dancing. Especially when he wound her up with the key, I thought the routine would really start. It was the oddest thing.
