"Corridor care"

I accompanied my father for an endoscopy procedure and everything went well from the pre checklist care and the actual procedure to the recovery. 

When I met him after the recovery, he was accompanied by a nurse. I greeted dad and he was fine about the care he received. The nurse than indicated she they would like to speak to both of and explain what they have found , what to expect from the recovery aspects in the next 48 hours, and what will happen next. 

Now mind you, I work in a hospital environment, and I know how you have to be sensitive about not only how you deliver it, but also the environment around you when speaking to patients and their families about personal information. 

So I was expecting us to be shown a room where we can discuss these issues. 

But alas, it was not to be. 

She proceeded to go straight into these personal information in the middle of a buzzing outpatient corridor. 

My dad seemed embarrassed and uncomfortable, so I did not interrupt her, so we can be on our way as soon as possible. 

Is this a normal protocol?
