One of the gals I work with called me into a residents room today.As I entered she was waiting for me and motioned for me to be quiet.( Something that is not often happenening with me as I am know to be a motor mouth).
As we were waiting in her room the resident would take her call light like the ones to call for assistance wanting a nurse or nurse aid.As she would push the button she would talk into the call light saying .... Hello this is Wilma may I have help please.This is Wilma Black I need some help in my room I cannot get up myself.Please come and help me. This is Wilma I need some help please. (At least she is polite).
I thought I was going to fall over laughing it was so cute and yet so very funny.Had I not seen it with my own eyes I never would think she truely was doing that.
I guess she thinks they are also a telephone connected to the nurses station.Maybe this will not make you laugh as much as it did me but I thought I would share anyway. hope you all have a good week.Be safe and stay healthy..

You should have grabbed your walkie-talkie and said, "We got your call - we are on our way!!!" :)
