A hospital in Vancouver leaves patients on a bench in the street

A hospital in the city of Vancouver, Canada leaves patients who are ready to be discharged after treatment on a bench in the street.

This hospital, which is called "Vancouver General Hospital", has been forced to do this due to lack of space. This hospital is located in downtown Vancouver and there are no residential facilities or social services nearby. These patients are usually homeless or people with mental problems. After being treated in the hospital, they have nowhere to go and are forced to spend the night on the street.

This work of the Vancouver General Hospital has faced a lot of criticism. Some people believe that this hospital endangers the lives of patients.

In a statement, a spokesperson for Vancouver General Hospital called the move "a last resort" and said the hospital is working to resolve the issue.

The hospital has promised to consider a suitable place in the future for patients who are ready to be discharged after treatment.

This action of the Vancouver General Hospital shows the problems of the health care system in Canada. Canada's health care system is underfunded and this has led to problems like this.
