identity becomes fragile and teenage boys return after hospital experiences can give rise to fears of inferiority.
Self-esteem is then put to the test.
The rules that govern the daily life of the department and its employees do not take into account the needs and aspirations of the patient, even over the space time management is oblivious to the needs.
