This all sounds a lot more complicated than a simple Op and discharge.

I dont think any hospital in the country isnt 2 to 4 times a day reviewing its beds and looking at who is medically fit for discharge. Clearly medically this person wasnt fit for discharge and as others have said, he may not have had the care at home to safely discharge.

It is however proven that if you are medically fit for discharge, then your normal place of residence is the best place to help you recover. The longer you stay in a hospital bed the more you decompensate. Yes being in a hospital bed is bad for your health

He want's out now fortunately, but now needs some infection 'draining'. We suspect that infection was 'there' before the gall bladder was removed, but it's now turned into how 'bad' the hospital are.
