Today when you get a medical procedure, they triple check who you are before doing anything. I remember one time in the 80’s we went to take a patient out of a hospital and back to their nursing home. When we arrived on the unit, the nurse gave us the patient chart and said the patient was in room 333, bed B. So we loaded the patient up and off we went. (The patient was unconscious). We made it as far as the ER when the nurse who released the patient to us, came running down the hall. She had told us the wrong patient. We almost made it out of the hospital, oops. After that I made it a point to check that I had the right patient, especially if they were unconscious.
