 Women's and Children's Hospital in Lubbock. I put together all of the computers for the ER and the Children's floor. Both had just been gutted and remodeled. The patient/physician's records software was damn near junk.  
 No wonder why every provider/staff we talk to is angry at their systems. 
 At the time it was all based around (wait for it) Citrix and that was EVERYTHING! Even good software was kicked in the nuts by that system. 

Then there was the time a “worm” got into the hospital systems. Grew geometrically. All hands for 24 hours. It was a mess.
