The Footprint Test and Hospital Chart Bloopers
Well it’s Friday. I hope you have a good weekend. Boy did I pick the wrong choice…

You Try to Tread Lightly |
You would like to make the world a better place, but you also don’t want to inflict any damage on it. You try to live a green and sustainable life. The environment matters deeply to you. You are thoughtful in your decisions and words. You think everyone should try harder not to harm one another. You don’t think big… in fact, you tend to think small. You know that one small action can make a big difference.
1. The patient refused autopsy.
2. The patient has no previous history of suicides.
3. Patient has left white blood cells at another hospital.
4. She has no rigors or shaking chills, but her husband states she was very hot in bed last night.
5. Patient has chest pain if she lies on her left side for over a year.
6. On the second day the knee was better, and on the third day it disappeared.
7. The patient is tearful and crying constantly. She also appears to be depressed.
8. The patient has been depressed since she began seeing me in 1993.
9. Discharge status: Alive but without permission.
10. Healthy appearing decrepit 69-year old male, mentally alert but forgetful.
11. Patient had waffles for breakfast and anorexia for lunch.
12. She is numb from her toes down.
13. While in ER, she was examined, x-rated and sent home.
14. The skin was moist and dry.
15. Occasional, constant infrequent headaches.
16. Patient was alert and unresponsive
17. Rectal examination revealed a normal size thyroid.
18 She stated that she had been constipated for most of her life, until she got a divorce.
19. I saw your patient today, who is still under our car for physical therapy.
20. Both breasts are equal and reactive to light and accommodation.
21. Examination of genitalia reveals that he is circus sized.
22. The lab test indicated abnormal lover function.
23 Skin: somewhat pale but present.
24. The pelvic exam will be done later on the floor.
25. Patient has two teenage children, but no other abnormalities.
Hey, it’s only my opinion.
A Hui Hou
This seems like me trying to word a memo to our Maintenance staff today. One of the seniors has three Organs, which she claims are more interesting to play than a piano, and doesn’t play any more, so she wanted to donate one to us.
I wrote that memo THREE times, but it still sounded like she’s donating an extra organ…kidney, liver, whatever.
Have a good weekend!
LOL sounds like life imitating art. LOL
I tread lightly as well.
#1 is the best on those bloopers. Nurses can write some pretty funny things when they are in a hurry.
Well it’s more you than me
I also liked number 1. 
They sure can write funny things 
Yep, I tread lightly. And those bloopers are fantastic! What a great laugh for the evening!! No wonder I hate the thought of going to a hospital!!! Thanks for the giggles! Have a great evening!

You are most welcome and have a great Friday 
I absolutely plan to refuse an autopsy!
Atta girl
Me too 
Circus sized?! LOL!
ROFLMAO!!! Too funny
OMG hilarious hospital bloopers! I had a day calendar with bloopers and such from doctors, it was great
I’m almost afraid to ask what size is circus sized, but I believe I may be less constipated since my divorce too, LOL!
I tread lightly too
OMG you just killed me with this comment LOL Too damn funny
These are too funny!!
You couldn’t make this stuff up.
Aren’t they hysterical? LOL
Got your same result too…
And I love those hospital chart bloopers!! I will just have to pass them on
Welcome to the club and I hope those that you send them to enjoy
This time I have the same result as you.I
I had read these sayings already they are too funny !
Welcome to the club my friend.
Glad you enjoyed 
We match! (50/50 chance there … duh!)
These medical reports terrify me! LOL!
Well it’s about time my darlin’
They do me as well 
OY! Little did I know I’d be sitting here IN ONE this weekend WATCHING bloopers occur by the TRUCK LOAD!!!
I got ‘tread lightly’ also. And those hospital notations are funny…I’ve read them before but never tire of them.
Happy Friday to you too Thom.
Glad you enjoyed and welcome to the club. Have a great weekend
…rectal exam reveals normal sized thyroid!
i’m going to tread lightly around my rectum and my thyroid!
ROFLMAO!!! I should hope to shout LOL
One missing letter and you’re getting run over lol! I had so much fun.
I tread lightly as well.
LOL..isn’t that the truth
I am also told to Try to Tread Lightly.
I chuckled out loud as some of these, with #1 getting the biggest chuckle.
OH watch your Email, something disturbing is on it’s way, just right up your alley :}
I saw your email ROFLMAO!! Right up my alley to tell you the truth
Welcome to the club and glad you enjoyed 
It said I tread lightly too. Ummmm….no I don’t think so!
OK, those hospital notations scare me! Not good! Which reminds me, did you ever read this post?

Let’s hear it for Elaine. Too funny that you mentioned that in that post. LOL Love it. It’s getting so close. Welcome to my club
oh my, those bloopers freaked me out. ROFLMAO!
i won’t even mention the ‘test’. pffft!
ROFLMAO!!! I knew you wouldn’t LOL
Glad you got a laugh with these 
That was a strange test. Aren’t all footprints indented?
Some of these are really funny.
LOL..my question exactly. Glad you enjoyed
I gotta tell you, the procedure in #17 must have been damn painful, but not as painful as #1 would have been had the patient not refused.
We scored the same on the footprint test. I sure am glad that didn’t require a rectal exam.
You and me both Q. I would have flunked big time LOL
It is often frightening how dopey the people in hospitals can be. When my grandpa was there so much a year or two ago, my grandma was always there making sure everything was done right! We tried to do the same thing for her when she went in :/
It is a scary thought but oh so true. Sad isn’t it?
