Had a funny incident experience with my patient who was fit for discharge. He lost his "old" and "new" other pair of slippers while with the student nurse during the bed side sponging and taking him responsible for the lost by paying him $50. If not he said he would report him (the student nurse) to the police officer about the incident. Search begun. Slippers were found at the ground floor outside the hospital building right in front of the patient's window. The lost and found slippers with different pairs were handed over back to the patient. The rest of the patient in the cubicle gave him an applaud for having it back after all. He then finally went home with a "happy feet" and sad. It's sad because he never succeeded on his scheme. Some patients or significant others would abused the staff for their self gain. One good example is the real scenario given above. They would do something rediculous and would find fault with others so as they could demand bigger things to cover up their hospital bills or something...true enough to those who are long stayer or has discharge problem issue.
