Jimbo my mum in law is in a hospice at the moment ,,, they do have most everything there the same as a hospital,,, but yet you do not have to turn off your mobile,,, so she can call ppl and we can call her etc. Yet hospitals insist u turn em off.

Apparently it can effect the machines, it can interfere with the transmission and cause the machines to stop working :confused: My sister in law is a sister on a ward and she keeps her phone on unless she is near a ward where the patients are reliant on the machines.

I think it's awful the prices which are charged to use the phones and televisions on the wards. The tv was £3 a day when I was there, just as well I was too ill to watch it really :rolleyes:
I am nobody..nobody is perfect...therefore I must be Perfect!
