The Medical System Was Like Boarding School | PTSD | Healing | AEM #128 Dr Robin Youngson


Listen Later

Is the experience of being in a hospital like boarding school?

Retired medical doctor, Dr Robin Youngson, talks about the similarities between hospitals and boarding school.

These include:

➡️ Bullying

➡️ Stripped of your clothes and identity and given a uniform

➡️ Given dreadful food at fixed times

➡️ Arbitary rules and regulations

➡️ Loss of all privacy

➡️ Sleep in shared dormitories

➡️ Shared toilets

➡️ The person in charge is matron

A fascinating conversation looking at the old model and how Dr Youngson created a new hospital system in New Zealand with amazing results.
