Unhealthy food isn’t the only problem. The environment for quality sleep is as bad as the food. Lights, beeping machines, etc. It’s as if hospitals don’t understand - or don’t care? - the basic ingredients of recovery from compromised health.

I remember being a little frustrated at the number of times they woke my wife, baby and I up after we had him.
You couldn’t have waited two more hours to take blood? It’s 430am…

Sure, but then if they don't take the blood at the specific prescribed interval and there ends up being a problem, they then get sued to hell for not perfectly following the established ideal medical procedure. "Why didn't you catch the issue earlier? If only you had done the tests on the prescribed interval rather than delaying."

Same here. We were in the hospital for a couple of days after the baby was born and I think I got woken up every two hours. Little did I know that I would get little sleep for the next year or so.

Misleading title - the study was limited to food at 2 German hospitals, and 3 German nursing homes. Those 5 were not randomly selected.
And the study only looked at the food served to patients and residents - not what they actually ate.
