The plastic beds, the one sheet, one thin blanket, one tiny hard pillow and AC on freeze setting.
The constant opening of doors at night
The noise, the constant noise and TV blaring
The lack of anyplace to be alone
The reactionary auto tackling of anyone they think is out of control without even talking to them first. This really triggers me, seeing the staff attacking patients without first trying to calm the situation down.
The need to be on constant vigilance from attacks
