So I have to ask…why is it bad to burn a scented candle in a hospital room and should a diffuser be used instead?

Why do I feel like she’s not gonna learn her lesson from all this…?

A pittance for the rich..

If Marcy thinks that Dana isn’t going to retaliate for this, she’s in for a shock.

By the way, where’s Nicole? Wasn’t it her idea to “teach Dana a lesson” in the first place?

Talk about extortion.

one point – Oxygen is not flammable. It’s an oxidizer. one of 3 components for a fire – oxygen, fuel, and heat. However, hospitals have oxygen pipes throughout the building. While oxygen it’self won’t burn, it will make other things burn quite intensely. therefore a leak is dangerous as many things that won’t normally burn will burn intensely if exposed to high enough oxygen content. And some items may spontaneously combust when exposed to high oxygen content.

“ridiculous”? Imagine what the cost would have been if your candle habit would have started a fire!

rich doesn’t being stupid with it.

That’s odd. I’ve seen scented candles being used by nurses in their station. Never heard of a fine for having one. It’s probably in the rooms where oxygen is in use that a candle would be verboten.

Can someone explain the big deal about a lit candle?

Let’s hope she’s learned her lesson now.

Any hospital that I’ve been to has a sign at the entrance strongly discouraging personal scents such as perfume or aftershave. You could be removed by security for just that, so I imagine that a scented candle or a defuser wouldn’t be allowed either.

In the 60’s & 70’s old hospitals supplied O2 to the patients in a small tank at the bed side. Modern hospitals have O2 lines built into the walls with just a nozzle and valve at the bedside. The main tank it outside the building. That’s why you don’t see closed patient doors with “Oxygen in use” signs posted anymore.

Now the question is, what effect will this have on Dana’s and Marcy’s friendship?

There are reputedly people to whom seven thousand dollars is a lot of money.

Pin money.And the overpowering odor in hospitals is ammonia.
