No, people who want to kill themselves will find a way. Where the hospital is liable is if they did not follow established procedures. Having anyone in there with a belt is a big no-no. Also, any thing that could have been used to anchor the “rope/belt” goes against established procedures in mental health facilities.

The hospital will settle out of court…and get visits by the state inspectors.

I cannot understand how any one would commit suicide.   If I was in a coma or kept alive with so called no brain function, I would still want to be kept alive.

I am with you on that.

I keep telling my kids I cannot wait until I am burden on them. I can tell they are looking forward to it.
