Visitors should enter the hospital room directly. After announcing their arrival, they should not linger and whisper outside the room. They should not start speaking until they are within a distance where the patient can see and hear them. It’s not good manners to start talking halfway through the door. If the patient is asleep when the visitor arrives, the visitor should immediately leave without standing and watching until the patient wakes up startled.
Yes, indeed.
There are etiquettes to observe depending on the time and place, such as wedding guest etiquette, funeral etiquette, and hospital visitor etiquette. Especially in the case of hospital visits, whispering out of the patient’s hearing is not recommended. Even if it’s not ill-intentioned, it can make the patient anxious. When someone is sick, their nerves can be sensitive and they can develop inferiority complexes, so special care and caution are needed.
