But is not only the nurses some patients have problems with, dem doctors too. One day a nurse was sitting at her station when de phone rang. A sweet-sounding woman on the other end of the line said, “I was wondering if the patient in Room 3 is getting any better.”
“Oh, yes,” said the nurse. “She is doing very well. Her blood pressure is normal; she is going to be taken off the heart monitor; and her doctor is going to discharge her in a few days.”
The woman said, “That is wonderful news! That’s fantastic! That’s simply great!”
The nurse on the phone said, “From your happiness, I take it you must be a close family member or a very close friend!”
“No!” said the woman. “I am the patient in Room 3. My doctor tells me nothing!”
Talk half and wait fuh find out when de Best Hospital gan flush dem toilets.
