Placement of a TeckPro data logging sound decibel meter at all patient bed-spaces to measure concurrent sound levels 24 hours per day, over a one (1) month period. Peak and mean sound levels per hour will be collected by the decibel monitor. Sound collected every 5 minutes will be logged by the decibel monitor and downloaded onto manufacturer software daily; data will then be imported into Microsoft Excel for further data analysis.
