And they left the sign up after they were done.
You're viewing a single thread.
Do the administrators not have meeting rooms of their own, that they have to chuck out patient's families?
Even if not, the family room next level down was empty.
What would be different about the family room on the next level down? Presumably that one would be intended for family of patients on the next level down...
Based on "you need to leave," they kicked out patients' families who were already in the lounge, instead of going to one that nobody was already in.
It could be they kicked out all but one of the patient's families because they were meeting with that family. I've seen that happen a few times, where staff needs to have a private conversation with the family, and needs to improvise a private meeting space. Usually the family waiting area will have a room set aside specifically for that purpose but not all of them do.
Happens outside of ICUs sometimes, since you can't have a meeting in the patient's room. In that case, the reason they wouldn't have gone to the one downstairs is because often times you don't want to ask the family to move to another floor if their loved one is on the floor they're already on.
OP implied they were kicked out of the room. At least the empty family room down one level was empty.
Yeah just meant they wouldn't have had to kick anyone out of the first floor family room.
