    I stayed, but didn't have to sleep in a lounge chair. One of our nursing units is closed right now due to low staffing, so I slept in one of the private rooms there. Even had a TV and a shower. I knew I would probably be staying, so I took clothes and toiletries along. It wasn't exactly a four star hotel, but better than a chair.

    I did not but my brother did. He spent 36 hours at work. Two twelve hour shifts with an 8 hour break in between. He slept in empty room and took change of clothes with him just like some others here.

    They should have at least gave you an empty bed. Did they make you pay to eat also?

    Oh the food was free! It was like when your power goes out and you make all the food in your freezer for dinner. :lol
    Now granted it was a Gerri chair,but I don't think I could have slept in anything but my own bed.
