Can hospitals discharge a patient in intractable pain?
If the pain does not require medical supervision, yes, hospitals can discharge the patient. When this happens the patient is normally prescribed medication, which they can take at home. Hospitals do not have the space, resources and staff to watch people 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So if a patient is deemed medically safe to leave the hospital on medication, they can be discharged. Discharges are not made on a whim, they are discussed professionally by doctors and the patient is only discharged if all the doctors in the discussion agree with the discharge.

How were hospitals in the early modern period different from medieval hospitals?
In the early modern period, hospitals began to transition from primarily serving the poor and sick as charitable institutions, as seen in medieval times, to more organized healthcare facilities focused on medical treatment and patient care. They increasingly adopted a more systematic approach to medical practices, incorporating emerging scientific knowledge and professionalization of medicine. Additionally, the architecture and layout of early modern hospitals often reflected a more hygienic and functional design, aimed at improving patient outcomes compared to the often overcrowded and unsanitary conditions of medieval hospitals.
