I just underwent a medical procedure with hospitalization. Almost every day I was asked if I was at risk or wanted to die. Several times I was given a paper survey with all sort of intrusive mental health questions. I declined to answer any surveys and replied to the question about wanting die with, "if I wanted to die I wouldn't be undergoing this procedure."
When I declined to answer the surveys the nurse would say it's OK not to answer but it would make her job easier if I did. I figure answering those surveys could subject me to red flag laws. And I figure there's pressure on the nurses to get patients to fill those surveys out.
Am I paranoid or careful?
