The hospital I was at was known to be rather a lousy one--but it was the one connected with my HMO at the time. There were and are much better hospitals than that. I'm sorry for giving you the bad impression.
As much as I hated the hospital, I'm glad it was there. I needed just to be kept safe for a week until I could keep myself safe again. That is all it really did for me. But that was what I needed. And one nurse did encourage me to get into a support group, which I did, actually a therapy group, which became one of my lifelines after that. She also encouraged me to do some volunteer work which I did and that helped me a lot, too.
