First, while Port Charles General Hospital seems to have multiple nurses’ stations with one on each floor, “General Hospital” really only has one nurses’ station. Crew members just change out the numbers on those ever-present elevator doors that reveal what floor your favorite characters are on. And about those elevator doors? It turns out they don’t even move on their own. The doors have to be manually pulled open and pushed closed every time one of your favorite characters pushes a button.
Then, there’s the actual nurses’ station itself, which looks just like you’d expect one to look in a real hospital, with computers, keyboards, clipboards, and containers full of pens for all those handwritten notes. It turns out the pens at the nurses’ station are glued down so they don’t get lost, according to R We There Yet Mom?.
So, the next time you see one of your favorite nurses like Felix Du Bois (Marc Anthony Samuel), Epiphany Johnson (Sonya Eddy), or Amy Driscoll (Risa Dorken) gossiping next to a cup full of pens or discussing an upcoming musical number for the Nurses’ Ball, know that they just can’t quickly grab one so those who run the “GH” set can keep track of every prop used that day.
