Or very heavy psych meds that "knock" people out. Most of the hallways in hospitals are wide for ease of moving beds.

Sorry to be so wordy.

In the old days when I first started nursing every medication given to patients was documented on a "med card" a business size card that gave the med. dosage, route of administration, patient name and location, as well as the times that they were to be given. Treatments were also listed on cards. They were stored in a cardex which was basically a flip file about 15 inches wide and 10 inches tall. Each patient had a main card that gave activity orders and diet orders. The small cards were tucked into the front of the main card. Can't explain the holder exactly, but it was hard clear plastic with corner holders for the large cards and a channel that the small cards fit into. The medication cards were in a seperate cardex file. My guess is that in this institution the med cards were placed in this holder in the corresponding slot. So you would find a 7AM med card in the 7AM slot etc. The PRN's (as needed) were in their own slot. It worked well for us in the early 70's, but the computer systems of today are probably much safer. The last 30 years of my nursing career I worked in speciality areas where patient's needs and orders were not routine. (ER, endoscopy, visiting nurse) So I really have no way to assess the safety/effectiveness of today's systems.

Looks like the door is trying to come alive.

Love the sad light in this gallery.

It is surprisingly to see the that star-spangled banner does yet wave.

Somehow Fritz Lang´s Metropolis comes to my mind …

The original Bad Girls Club.

Sweet! Some beverages to wash down the paint chips.

Death by zombie investigations. They never find the bodies for some reason.

"It's medication time!"

My bed is still there, cool.

That's zombie containment. Need a sturdy door, don't want them rascals getting out.

Just a little off the top please
