          illumination.19  For example, each patient room contains a 2-tube           
          fluorescent light fixture which is attached to the wall just                
          above each patient bed headboard and which is activated by a pull           
          cord placed within the patient's reach.  Additionally, each                 
          patient room contains a fluorescent light fixture placed over the           
          vanity cabinet located in the patient room area and a night light           
          that provides exit lighting during the night.  Furthermore, each            
          patient room contains one large double-pane window which                    
          illuminates the patient rooms during the daylight hours.  Use of            
          the overbed lights may be uncomfortable for some patients because           
          of the brightness of the lights and of the placement of the                 
          lights directly over a patient's bed.                                       
               The electrical conduit, wiring, and junction boxes relating            
          to the overbed lights are used only with those lights, but, if              
          necessary, they could be adapted for other uses.  The electrical            
          connections relating to the overbed lights are necessary for the            
          operation of the overbed lights.                                            
               14.  Accordion Doors/Partitions (Property Unit 3240)                   
               The accordion doors/partitions (partitions) in the subject             
          category consist of two different types of accordion-style room             
          dividers.  Both types are approximately 8- to 10-foot high and,             
          when expanded, are used to subdivide the hospital cafeterias and            
          conference rooms into smaller rooms.  They are attached to the              


          19   Those lighting devices are not in issue.
