Greenville, S.C. (AP) - Callers are finding tha Nurses on
Call, which was supposed to be a quick way to get medical
information, has turned into a very different kind of hot
line. Instead of a helpful nurse, callers to the toll-free number
now hear music and a woman's sultry voice referring them to
expensive adult-entertainment numbers. Greenville Hospital System created Nurses on Call in 1987
but about a year ago disconnected the toll-free number.
Eventually it went back into the pool of available 800 number
and was reassigned, a spokeswoman for MCI WorldCom told the
Greenville News.
