A GOMER (also commonly Goomer or Gomere) is a medical slang term for a patient in a hospital who is demented (and not fully conscious) or bordering on death, hence taking up room unnecessarily in the hospital. Doctors and nurses may feel that they shouldn't receive life prolonging treatments anymore and should just be allowed to die peacefully.
