Public hospital mixed wards includes breast cancer surgery patients

I’m an’old school’ nurse and we managed to separate the sexes back in the’70s,80s and 90s no problem.
I wouldn’t like to share a hospital bathroom or room with strange men I didn’t know.Although private,I had to share a 4bedder room with women after my mastectomy op at a public hosp and one of them screamed out all night- she couldn’t reach the buzzer.I ended up dragging my drip around to attend to her.
