If you had people sticking wires on you and watching you through a closed circuit tv camera while you tried to soeep would you spend what could be your last minutes on earth alive welcoming Anonymous newcomers to an internet forum?
You're up! I'd just be grateful the wires weren't stuck
into me. And, I'd pray the camera people looked like pansies too
. I've heard they sometimes have to come in and adjust the wires if they get loose. I was supposed to have a sleep study and the guys did look like pansies, but I opted out so far. I just think there should be more security, like female guards and/or patients receive their complete audio video footage afterward with a certification of no tampering or something. And more female technicians. I would put my phone on record the whole time just to be on the safe side. They said you can get up to pee though.
I would want to do it at a normal hospital. The place I was referred to was a small clinic in a building of small clinics on a hospital campus. So, if there was an ethics problem during sleep, who would I call? Hospital security was kind of joke from what I saw. The cops wouldn't know which building or room number. So, a regular hospital with plenty of staff on the floor would have felt a lot less isolated to me.
And, they expected everyone to go to bed at 9PM and be up by 5AM. How many people get up at 5AM? Is it even light out? Spend the night with strangers then be kicked out into the dark? No coffee stand in sight. I can't imagine running sleep studies without offering morning coffee. And decaf. Remind me to bring one of those Vietnamese canned coffee things with me.
