I know that if I was a patient in the hospital that I would want my own shower. In our hospital we have showers in everyroom and it makes it easy to get the patients back and forth. Also family members we more likely help if they do not have to go down the hall to a public area.
The oldest that we have delivered was 54. her youngest child was 28. She said that she guessed she got pregnant when she was going through the change of life.....Boy what a change. She and her husband were really excited tho'
