30 Hospital Christmas Decorations That Show Medical Staff Are The Most Creative People Ever
If you think that hospitals are sterile, slightly eerie and entirely humorless places, then these nurses and doctors are here to prove you wrong! Not only they've made their hospitals seem like the most festive places to be during the Christmas time, but did so with a great sense of humor, by using stuff like blood vials and even urinals as their Christmas decorations of choice. A Christmas tree made of semi-sterile gloves? Check. Babies wrapped warmly in Christmas stockings? Yep. A Christmas spirit inspired wreath made entirely out of pee jars? Triple check! These medical professionals surely made their workplaces into winter wonderlands as if with a swift swing of a magic wand, ahem, scalpel. Do you work in a hospital that's decked out with awesome indoor Christmas decorations? Post your Christmas decorations ideas for hospitals below, or vote on your favorite from the list!

Babies Born In The Festive Period Are Wrapped Up In Christmas Stockings
KeziaHatch 10 years ago
when I was born I was born 2 months premature and when my family came to visit me I was wrapped up like this! I was 2 lb. and 11oz.

Me too, when I was born 3 months premature the day after Christmas I had a Santa costume. 2 pounds 3 ounces

I was born on Christmas Eve and I have my stocking that the hospital put me in. That was in 1959.

This is how my little Brother came home 45 years ago on the 13th of December. He still has his stocking.

When my youngest daughter was born New Years day she was wrapped in a white stocking with a red band while the other holiday babies were in red ones. They hung another stocking with the year stenciled on it over the handle

You Know You Work In A Hospital When The Christmas Decorations Look Like This
Joelyn Kitzmiller 7 years ago
As a patient, you know you’re in the RIGHT hospital if you see that!

This is my favorite! I would double over with laughter seeing this in the hall.

What's your problem? Are you racist? There are millions of people in America from other countries who don't call the holiday, "Christmas".

Hospital Christmas
BrennaYoung 9 years ago
@lillianchapman STFU about wasted resources already. A couple boxes of gloves cost around $40. I hardly think that's a terrible waste of NHS resources...especially as they have billion-dollar budgets. Stop repeating your nonsense. ITS FESTIVUS AND CHEERS UP THOSE WHO NEED IT MOST.

Laughter healeth like the best of medicine. It also reduces anxiety, which improves patient outcomes, and is therefore a legitimate nursing intervention.

Yes, cool off ! Even if you go and buy " real Christmas decor", what? That is money, right? Doesn't your workplace throw a Christmas party for the employees?, potluck?? Are you so phsyco that sees everything in dollars and miss the fun on things?

Cheaper than the obligatory fake Christmas tree, and brings more JOY!
Violet Gomez 8 years ago
That's my picture! I made that tree! I'm a patient and I had to spend Christmas in the hospital. Oh and by the way, none of those materials were wasted. The boxes of gloves couldn't be used because they were ordered wrong, and the other pieces were also unusable because they were going to be thrown away.

Any department that would say no to this is pretty sad! I wouldn't want to work there.

What do you think ?

I think they need to change that title. I've worked in the medical field for over 20 yrs and never have I've seen a doctor put up decoration
Pamala Vela 7 years ago
We did it all the time in the dentist's office - wreaths with dental stuff, a tree with gloves, etc. Also when my daughter was born at Xmas time - they sent her home in a stocking. The whole ward was decorated. The nurses at Kapiolani were awesome!

How about healthcare workers? Nurses make up the largest group of healthcare wirkers and are not medical staff. That totle still only applies to MD's not RT's, PT's, social workers, pharmacists, etc

I love the babies being put in stocking, my grandson was born Dec 16th, 2009 at white county hospital in AR and they brought him to his momma in one it was the cutest thing ever, she still hangs it on the wall every christmas. That's my vote

The DOH (department of health) has put the kibosh on decorating in all patient areas. Most places can only decorate employee only areas. No Christmas cheer at our Hospital.

I respect all medical workers, but please forgive the (probably) laypeople who wrote the title. They probably don't know that "medical staff" has a strict definition within the hospital /clinic world. --Linguist
