Lack of sensitivity and professionalism from social worker

Leading up to my third day at Northern Duchess Hospital I had been treated with such kindness and respect by all of the staff. On the third day that shifted. A Case worker/social worker named Hadas was assigned to my case and paid me a visit. Everything felt like it was going well at first so I felt comfortable offering the suggestion of possibly entering an inpatient rehab facility due to my continued condition. My family is not in a position to care for me full time and I understand the the application process may take some time. Hadas took off out of the gates saying that I should leave for rehab as soon as I was discharged. I admit this took me back a moment as I did not have my affairs in order for such an immediate move. This is absolutely what I was asking for, however, she had no sense of why this might be sooner than anticipated and something that I would really like to be more prepared for. I like having a plan and this just felt very rushed and impersonal. I asked for more time to think on it and Hadas so eloquently explained to me that I was extremely rude. My father was present and proposed that this shouldn't be such an unreasonable request. I whole heartedly asked her, " What would you do?" Hadas returned with "Don't be rude to me." Hadas decided that she would leave without a goodbye and left me with no hope in terms of a reasonable discussion or outcome. She informed me that Laura (Another worker who she would be switching over to my case) would come see me the next day. Her bedside manner leaves much to be desired and her career goals should probably be reassessed. She is in no way a professional who desires to advocate for those in need.
