Infrastructure brought to the home. Well coordinated and all covered by ohip.

Just garbage trucks and streetcars and the very occasional car passed by on my late night walk home from the hospital.

The Hospital does not have visiting hours. Visitors can come and go as they please.

A comfy room to wait in while they do tests. The television is set to talk shows and soaps.
