Reply to comment by hsavvy in Lawsuit: Western Psych staff mistook nurse's disabilities, injected him with antipsychotic meds by saintofhate

Oh please

The staff at these hospitals encourage family members to make shit up all the time to make a patient committable when they find another family member “inconvenient” And want to get them out of the house for a while but they don’t meet the criteria

There are literally not enough beds for all the people that need help. They try to send as many people home as they can. You have absolutely no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

That’s not true. There are empty beds every week. My friend does MH placements. There are hundreds of open beds on any given day.

Are you sure you aren’t having a psychotic break? I looked at your profile and saw that you take recreational psychedelic drugs.

Not judging, it’s fine with me, but don’t expect other people to believe your delusions.

Also, you said in another post that your girlfriend is at the bottom of her payscale. Doesn’t sound like she’s the lead of anything. You’re contradicting yourself a lot.

That's not really how it works. "Open beds" is sometimes used colloquially to indicate that a unit can take more patients, but literal "empty beds"/rooms can't always be filled due to mandated patient ratios. There's a massive staffing shortage and so the number of patients that a unit can take is heavily limited. People in charge of placements cannot see staff census, so they would not be privy to that information.

I worked there for years. You're a liar and probably someone who's unwilling to accept consequences for their words/actions.

I can’t speak to this particular hospital, but I’m a former Public Defender who represented people being subject to involuntary commitment. You wouldn’t believe the hoops that hospital staff and even hearing officers will jump through to commit someone who doesn’t meet the criteria.

I know that can happen but not typically to an employee in the middle of their work day.

I couldn’t disagree more with regards to Western Psyche
