Try housing 4 patients and their parents in a single room - house 2 people in a 10x10 cubicle with nothing for privacy but a curtain and a walk down the hallway for restroom facilities for 2 months, and you'll see that regardless of where you go, there will always be room for improvement. Foundations DO NOT pay for staff - ever. They exist to raise donations for capital expansions and patient amenities. They pay for the comfy chairs and TVs. You think you would like to hang out in a room for weeks/months at a time without even the privilege of watching TV, be my guest, but when it is a PT's only escape - don't deny it.
Close those 2 curtains - and live there for 2 months, and then tell me "extravagance" is unnecessary. BTW - that chair is also the parent bed.
Who said I was for denying TV? I am not against comfortable rooms. I am agaisnt rooms that go beyond comfort. I am not for no TV. I am against TVs bigger than the patient.
You can find a happy medium between slum and hotel room. It does not have to be one or the other.
