Can a person enter a hospital, pose as a doctor and get away with it for 2 hours!


Question:

Can a person enter a hospital, pose as a doctor and get away with it for 2 hours?

Please help me settle a debate I’m having with my sister.

THIS IS A HYPATHICAL QUESTION!!

We recently visited a relative in the hospital. I’m a curious person by nature so I took in my surroundings. I noticed how busy a hospital is, so many staff members coming in & out of rooms and overall disorganization.

It crossed my mind to ask my sister, if I were to wear a doctor’s outfit, have a badge and just walk around a hospital would I get caught?

PLEASE NOTE: I also explained to my sister I would not attempt to TREAT patients – just reading off their bed chart and telling them to rest.

I say I can do 2 hours easily. As long as I’m not giving nurses orders and being disruptive I think I can easily pull this off.

My sister insists I would not last 5 minutes.

I think she is grossly mistaken.

What is your take? Do you think I could pull this off and last 2 hours?


Answers:

I think you could pull it off if you can answer patients questions as you are checking their charts, otherwise you would have to hide out somewhere in the hospital. My father is a surgeon, I used to go on his rounds with him, his patients asked alot of questions.
