This group Halloween costume idea lets you play dress up and act out. It works for any size group, men or women, but think ahead for this one. You'll need plenty of time to locate all the props. If you have a friend in the medical field, try to borrow items from her.
Hospital How-To
Scrubs are an obvious necessity!
Accessorize with: face masks, rubber gloves, stethoscopes and pagers/cell phones. You can also make up nametags to pin on uniforms.
To distinguish between doctors and nurses, let "doctors" wear white coats.
Borrow or rent a wheelchair. Have someone play the role of patient.
Carry charts (just fill file folders with scrap paper), talk in medical lingo and pretend to care for the patient throughout the night.
