Waiting anywhere can be quite boring. So when the time comes that you might have to be that one riding or driving to a waiting room or doctor's office, bring something along to keep you entertained. However, if you forget or couldn't bring your favorite book or electronic, then do the following:
1) Check out the grounds.
2) Grab snacks from vending machine or visit the hospital cafeteria.
3) Walk to nearby shopping district.
4) Comfort those who are upset with light-hearted conversation after they have calmed down.
5) Watch TV in lobby area.
