OK, tell me specifically what a hospital - or anyone else - can do, to 'help' a patient that won't help themselves? Lock them up and dry them out against their will? Should we lock up drug addicts to keep them away from drugs? how about forcing blood pressure meds down the throats of people who are on the verge of a stroke, but won't stay compliant?
My guess is you have never worked in primary care, if you did, you would have a very different opinion about the limits of how much you can help someone that won't help themselves, or even admit they have an issue.
Easiest thing in the world to say is 'someone should do something', and what you usually mean is 'someone else should do something'.
