4MUL8RWhat sound source does my wife want?
Thanks for all the helpful replies.
For some who have wondered why a work computer cannot be used, or her phone, or something more common, I spared all of you the details. The details consume at least 20 minutes of your day.

HRKI use an old iPhone 5s from when we upgraded and connected it via BT to an Amazon speaker pod.
1. Connects reliably to a wireless network - yes
2. Not as big as a boom box - Yes
3. Not as loud as a boom box - Yes
4. Not desirable, as the cleaning people will take it at night for their very own - I don't think you'll find anything that meets this requirement - it's a bit unrealistic. I would suggest something small enough she will take home with her or put in a locked drawer.
5. Displays at least one internet music source, such as Pandora, iHeart Radio, etc. - yes
6. Operates on battery power (no outlets nearby, for whatever reason, in a health clinic) - yes
7. Rechargeable - yes
8. Affordable - yes
The speaker is an iHome rechargeable BT Speaker, it is compact, folds into a small carry sack, light, and only $19.
