@cp24breakingnews: An elderly patient says she was pushed out of a hospital before she had fully recovered and left alone at a hotel. Beth Macdonell explains. #Hospital #Hotel #Ontario
She has family. Hospitals aren’t LTCs. LTCs exist.

The hospital is not a hotel. If you’re not acutely unwell there’s no reason to occupy a hospital bed

Oxygen management can absolutely be done at home.

Was the expectation to live at the hospital indefinitely?

She has a chronic disease. She isn’t getting better and hospitals are not hotels. The family has to care for them.

Shout out to Jaz :
She has COPD she’s never going to fully recover. She has to manage her symptoms.

This is the reason hospital is crowded & people have to wait half day to see a doctor. Many people think hospital bed is like a hotel.

Where was she living before she went into the hospital? Could she not have gone back there?

You can’t stay in the hospital . The family has to step up and take care of their family

It’s insane to me that you thought the hospital was a free nursing home option 😳

I have seen a social workers at a niagara hospital er tell little old ladies frail as can be, they don't have anywhere for them to go at all. More than once. Seniors are very quickly becoming the highest demographic for homeless people in Canada

What’s very hard to believe is that the family was never notified about the discharge.

A hotel is an option. She has family. Sounds like everyone was refusing to participate in discharge planning. Also, this is why we need more government funding and more candidates advocating for healthcare.

The hospital doesn’t provide housing after discharge. Honestly she’s lucky they coordinated this
