I'm placing muscle memory in the oxymoron catagory, beside, "good hospital food".
I was on a team that was instructing Reservists in CQC prior to heading out to the sandbox. The lead instructor kept on referring to the "Suprasternal notch" (space where the breastbone ends and throat begins) as the "Jugular Notch" and about drove me crazy. Some of the PA/Paramedic/EMT's came to me during a water in/water out break to laugh about it and begged me to correct the guy.

Regarding the hospital food - some hospitals do better than others, and the VIP's often get outside catering brought to their rooms at some of the larger hospitals at which I've been.
