One patient room that I visited had a TV
monitor with a VCR player. It was bolted
to the table, so that would not be stolen.
It was unplugged.
The useless machine made the table less useful
in the room. The light also bolted to the table
limited what its use.
The original chair that matched the table
was in disrepair and looked like it might
fall apart if anyone sat on it.
Replacing the the table with one that supports
a Lap-top computer would be better. And a chair
that makes it easy to sit for hours and work
would help.
