Why patient should know there rights ?
- Being hospitalized can be a very intimidating experience.
- Patients find themselves thrown into a foreign environment and often feel that they have very little or no control over what is happening to them.

- In this situation, patients often feel intimidated about voicing their concerns related to their care.
