Coworkers Opening Patient Windows During Inclement Weather

[SilverBells]

What would you do if you had a colleague that opened patients’ room windows during inclement weather? For example , the other day it was quite cold, cloudy and rainy and someone had opened up all the windows on one unit.  A similar happening occurred during Winter when it was very snowy out.  In both instances, some of the rooms got very cold, almost to the point of being freezing.  What would you do about a colleague who does things such as this?  In our case, we don’t know who is responsible (yet) but wondering about the best approach should their identity become known

Sorry for the misattribution- that’s the way it quoted for me. Sigh.  
Thanks for the kind words. Mostly in the past now, though. ?

What did you miss? ???

You can always get a laser thermometer that checks room temperature for 20.00 on line. We had a patient whose room temperature never got above 64 degrees. We shut the room down and moved her to another room. 70 degrees was the temperature we sought for. It was topic that was added on one of our required staff meetings, and nobody objected. 

Room is haunted!

That must be quite the window ninja you have there... ? Have you tried asking your patients/residents who opened the windows? Are you telling me that the stealthy window-opening mastermind managed to open all windows ?❄️?? without a single patient noticing and not a single one pressing their call bell or whatever until the window fiend had done the deed and vacated the premises? 

Now I know how window wizard has managed to remain undetected.. The poor residents are probably collectively deaf as a post after all that heavy metal ??? ? blaring in the dining room ?

I still think it's a conspiracy. The govt is conducting tests on remote operating windows ?? on behalf of Taco Bell ?????

I would say that it might be your glasses but I am seeing the same thing so I think it might be your laptop? ???? 

Have you tried using another laptop or maybe your phone and see if you can see something else other than Blah? ?????

I’m Scandinavian and we have inclement weather for the better part of the year. It’s no reason to not let in some fresh air.

You sound like my Grandma. (Dutch)
