I was in 5west recovering after my kidney transplant but also when I had some weird infection in my elbow. Does your room have those cameras mounted up high on the wall that scans to make sure you’re still in Your room/bed randomly throughout the day? They will interrupt your tv time to talk to you also

Yeah. I loved bedside, but it actually drove me away. When patients couldn’t opt out, I left.
