Oh goodness, how this talk of hospital mistreatment horrifies me! I'm very sorry to anyone who has to endure this. I believe I've been very lucky in receiving great care, for the most part, though I do believe I've been subject to 'goofs' over many stays (who in that position hasn't though?).
Possibly the worst though was having a physical therapist who was verbally abusive. She put me through so much and had me believing that I was hopeless and belonged in a nursing home. I'd so much faith that I was receiving good treatment that it took me a long time to realize that this was not supposed to be happening. I've switched therapists, but I also know that my old therapist still gets paid to treat people this way. It's terrible.
I'm very sorry to hear about others' seriously horrid mistreatment. : ( I wish better stays to all who have to endure them!
