Good Luck, Ruth Johnson - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: Carol is in Wilson's room writing on the center of his chart. When the shot shows her turn to answer Wilson, her pen is writing near the edge of the chart. She didn't have time to change the pen's position so quickly.

Good Luck, Ruth Johnson - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: A policeman is in the ER talking about the little boy who was shot. He gives Carol a schoolbook with the boy's name in it. She looks at it and asks, "What about Wilson's family?" and then closes it - then as the cop answers, "Workin' on it", we see her closing it again.

Good Luck, Ruth Johnson - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: Carol is talking to Wilson in his room and she says, "I'm sad about what happened to Andy". As she says this, her arm is stretched out and her hand is on the bed railing. The next quick shot shows both her hands are holding his chart.

Good Luck, Ruth Johnson - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: A detective goes into Wilson's room to talk to him, and Carol joins them, sitting near the end of the bed by Wilson's feet. A couple of shots later, as the detective talks to him, Carol is suddenly sitting by his knees, even though she never changes positions.

Love's Labor Lost - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: As Mark futilely pounds on Jodi O'Brien's chest, Carol can be seen in the background, removing her protective glasses with one hand. However, after the Time of Death has been called and they're showing the reactions of everyone present in the room (Susan, Carol, Carter, Lydia, Chen), Carol is seen taking the glasses off again, this time with both hands.
