In recognition of April Fool’s Day I thought I would have some fun and list some things you don’t want to hear in a hospital.  I have found that humor is a good tool in chaplaincy ministry.  Ask any of the employees where I work, they all know I share jokes constantly!

THINGS YOU DON’T WANT TO HEAR IN A HOSPITAL:

• A surgeon says “OOPS” during surgery.
• The patient who had this procedure lived three whole days afterward.
• I am not sure what the right dosage is but this amount ought to help.
• A blood sample appears in the lab without any identifying label, and the technician says, “It must belong to the same patient as the sample next to it.”
• The patient enters the hospital and is asked, “What funeral home would you like us to call?

Tomorrow I will return to more realistic postings.  Enjoy the day!
