Hospital Regulations

Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged.




However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.

After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.

On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
"I don't know," he said.

"She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown."
