The Bath TubTest.
During a visit to the senior's home, I asked the director how do you
determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?
"Well," said the director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon,
a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's
bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No." said the director, "A normal person would pull the plug.
Do you want a bed near the window?"
ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON...
OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE?
