Mobile Phones Taking Over The Asylum
Mobile Phones Taking Over The Asylum
01/27/2004 01:16 AMInteresting article by the head of a psychiatric institute in New York
City discussing
whether or not patients should be allowed to have
mobile phones. They allowed them - but the chargers had to be
kept behind the nurses' station (so patients couldn't use the cords to
hang themselves). While there were benefits to letting patients
connect with the outside world - it also took away some element of the
"asylum": they no longer seemed away from everything. Eventually,
though, they decided to stop allowing mobile phones for a very
different reason: all of the annoying ringtones became too much for
the nurses to deal with. They have no problem with internet
connections to the outside world. Patients can bring in laptops and
email and IM away. However, the only people allowed to use mobile
phones are those looking for jobs, who aren't thrilled about potential
employers calling them on the psychiatric institute's main line.
