we had to stay overnight in an observation room, it was very uncomfortable. my son is 3 and we both slept on the same stretcher, he didn't even have an actual hospital bed in his room. there was no bathroom in the room so i couldn't go to the bathroom unless staff sat with my son or if we had a visitor. i understand vitals need to be done every 4 hours, but my son also needed pain meds every 3 hours so we were constantly being woken up in the middle of the night. it also took respiratory therapy forever to come and give him his daily inhaler, which i had ours from home and should have just been able to give it to my son myself, it would have made him much less anxious about his inhaler.
