[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 375491, member: 4264"] We have either singles (if private insurance covers it). Semi-private for insured and/or patients deemed to require it. Wards (4 beds to a room). I can't imagine personally staying in a room with men. I can't imagine it being comfortable for most men either. I also imagine that although it would be a bigger concern than a reality, eventually there will be incidents of inappropriate conversations or advances etc. I also know that there are stories from most nurses of male patients (especially elderly, I've heard some doozies!) exposing themselves etc. Not comfortable for nurses but those dynamos usually know how to put these patients in their place. Not so much for patients sharing a room, particularly women. Wards and semi private rooms also share a bathroom and since hospital bathrooms can't lock for safety purposes, I can't imagine showering and whatnot in a shared bathroom with a male. Just can't. easy child is still struggling about her pet. Linus was such a cool little guy. :( The cat turned out to be his bestest friend, and is completely lost, wondering around meowing and looking for his buddy. [/QUOTE]
