from the era and it being a hospital it is probably just a dumb terminal talking (in all likely hood) to a mainframe.

Brand New = very expensive, state of the art, high tech. Two days later = obsolete, no value, too heavy to move, can't sell. It's the same with just about everything, cars, computers, furnishings, office / industrial equipment. That is, until it gets REALLY old, then it's a valuable antique!

Serious? For an abandoned hospital this room is in GREAT condition! I was in the hospital for an ulcer in March, and the room wasn't that much better than this one!
Tiny...I agree; 'Music' definitely adds to the experience.
I'm addicted to viewing Mr. Motts' work while listening to "Cryosleep"

there's plenty of room at the Hotel Philadelphia.
I know in the rehab hospital where I worked, (and several others) they had some old cars set up for people to learn how to transfer and such, also they would have mini apartments to help people relearn to get around like you were at home.
They hold red plastic bags-one problem with those is the bag is exposed, where it might get torn or a nick which theoretically, would leak the infectious waste product thruout the ward. I'm pretty sure most hospitals have gone to hard plastic red containers. We have similar containers that hold plastic laundry bags tho. Those things are pretty flimsy, too.
Actually, the mattress looks in pretty good shape.
The hospital I work in has a morgue cooler like that, it can ony fit 2 morgue litters.
