The very few crusty, ex-smoking transcriptionsits left in the building. Because, the monster US corporate giants like Medquist and Spheris (among others) have outsourced their US medical records /accounts to their contracted transcriptionists in India.
WHAT? You say? What about the beloved HIPAA? It don't "count" when it comes to medical records being transcribed overseas.
No, I am not kidding.
"It doesn't "count."
Ugh. Ashamed of myself.
Second choice, air filter bag room.
Regardless, he is cute. Our dogs would never let us dress them up!
Who holds the key? - Janitorial staff.
It's the access door to the roof of the building?
Oooh, it's the room with the vents that blow hot air. If it's the vent room, then the head of the ER must have the keys.
The other guess (yeah, I get two because I'm a nonsmoker) is a lactation room.
It's the bar and the head of Psychiatry holds the key.
If it's the decor, the hospital auxilliary has the key.
If it's the roof, I have the key. Or I would if I were the pathologist who works in the office across the hall.
In reality, it is probably the hospital stash of toilet paper, stacker paper towels, replacement soaps, and the world's largest repository of piso mojado folding signs.
Maybe it's a clue!!!
My guess is, old supply room and no one had the key in particular till you asked about it.
*Somewhere in Happy's hospital*
"Hey, John! That crazy internist, yeah the one who takes stairs everywhere, before hoppin' in his porsche, yeahhh him. He just sent me an email wanting to know what a damn door does on the 8th floor behing the corner!!! Whadda mean, of course I don't know what it's for!!!"
Inside is all the "fuse boxes" or whatever it's called that manages all the electricity throughout the hospital. The emergency generators are probably there.
I had a job as a security guard for a while :-)
with little hand soaps and chocolates
Blog break resumes now...

Your job is actually a giant experiment to see how much shit you will take from patients. And your hospital and your town is a set. And behind that door is the control room and deb peel has the key.
MMMMUHHHHHAAAAAHHAAA!
all the safety equipment, fire stuff?
security have the keY?
All I can think of besides what's been mentioned are ancillary services.
Secret escape hatch for medical administrators?
A cafeteria is sometimes run by a different company, so I think that the kitchen would have its own access codes. My guess is that the key "authorizer" is the hospital's facilities manager.
So here is the 2nd one: what kind of antlers/horns are those?

This is where you go when there's a kink in your discharge plans.
Seriously, though: Care Coordination/Social Services? And the key is held by the House Soup
I got it !
key:
(I dont know hospital admin very well yet) but COO?
7
Is this a kink for the patient or the doc?
Patient = morgue
Doc = social workers
Who holds the key? Social workers.
little slow off the starting line
sorry!
2nd key guesses:
morgue dude, dead body picker-upers
head nurse
"Of course, I also hear that the administration has their own secret heated garage that only the chosen few can use>"
So this is the door to the administrative parking garage and the administrator's secretary has the key.
Residents, security, cleaning staff
little prayer room?
hospital spiritual guru dude has the key, priest or whatever
Happy, check my post from the 13th.
Please.
Not a specially equipped room for administering enemas/doing colonoscopy prep/etc. Seriously. I tried not to go there when I saw "discharge plan"....
Nursing supervisor?
E
If it is, then I'm pretty sure that no one has the key because I know I've never heard someone dictating use such a room.
Billing, key held by: the head bean-counter overlord.
with those little machines that Enron used...
THM
too bad you have no identity so if you win, the next closest (aka me) gets the reward!
recycling room?
composting the paper?
scanning room to get the charts electronic?
copy room?
7
never heard of such a thing but suppose it is possible
It is either a room that used to house the hospital radio station or ballroom or a mini casino or maybe more simply it is the PBX room.
The CEO has the key. Or the House Soup (cmon peeps, we all know the House Soup runs the hospital... especially at night).
Alternately, I don't think that anybody has guessed this one:
Nobody remembers where the door leads and nobody has the key.
Usually data center manager has the key - even CIOs in well run places don't have keys as they are not required nor "necessary" personnel to have access.
*I''m not trying to sound bitter, this is just a guess based on past experience.
