Is Coercion from a hospital emergency room staff grounds for law suit?" Emotional stress?
Say a dr. orders labs at 7:00 pm, and a test was not taken, so by making up for their mistake, Dr. and Nurse rush in the patient room, striping off patients personal clothing in a rushed fashion clothes telling the patient that they might, maybe be admitted, (11:00 pm), when the Dr. knew that they weren't going to be admitted the patient (at 8:55 pm)

If you can demonstrate that medical professionals fell below the professional standard of care, and that this caused emotional or physical damage, you may be entitled to damages. You would need to consult with an attorney for them to determine if you were in fact so harmed. If you there are no damages, there is no case, and an apology will suffice.
