10 Funky Hospital Smells
Steve Berman | NursingLink
8. Cafeteria food
Okay, this isn’t always fair. Some hospital cafeterias make food so good that it attracts all the medical professionals in the area. But even the best cafeterias have to make food for patients that (due to dietary restrictions) doesn’t smell great, especially when you have to see it several times a day (Jell-O, anyone?).

In the hospital you can find many strange smells. You`ll think it`s funny but I like how it smells in the dentists medical cabinets. I take care of my teeth health and I searched a lot for dentists New Hampshire cabinets until I found one good enough.

I just hate hospital smells and the garbage smell, in fact I don't know which one I hate the most. Thank God that our local rubbish removal NJ service is functioning properly and we don't have to deal with old garbage disposed improperly. As for the hospital smells, they always give me shivers, they make hospitals even more unpleasant.

I remember the day when I took in the air of a hospital as a medical student for the first time, it turned my stomach. It was routine to admit medical students in the ICU for all purposes, as the wards were too grubby. Within a minute of entering the ICU I felt sick. Smells have a way of bringing back memories associated with them in an extremely vivid fashion. My mind got flooded with images of various times when my mother was hospitalized for Phentermine abuse. I felt so giddy, I had to step out and leave without visiting. Over the years I have got accustomed to ‘Hospital smells’ of all sorts. No issues there.

This little article seems a bit harsh.
