Summoning Yoda


Speaking of names, I once worked with a pretty, nice, and shy Jamaican nurse named, Yata. She was working on our floor for just that one day to help us out, so not everyone knew of her (yet). Her name was written on the board for everyone to see. This other nurse was looking for the nurse who was taking care of this patient and that was Yata. She saw on the board, her name, but due to poor penmanship, it read Yoda. Thus, on overhead page was, “Yoda, please indicate. Yoda, please indicate. Room 16 needs you for pain medicine.” Mind you this was around the time that new movie, Star Wars, had just come out in theaters. Patients all around the unit were asking questions, especially the mentally confused ones.
