ere's a
tip to
help
your surgeons eas-
ily locate their
patients in pre-op
and PACU. Use a
2-inch binder clip
to hang a color-
coded card to
your cubicle cur-
tains. Assign each
doc a color and
print his name on
the paper so that
when he walks
down the hallway,
he can easily see
his color and his
name.
