I doubt if any hospital ever used coffins as beds. But such a story could easily stem from the use of "Utica cribs" in the nineteenth century. Their size and shape had a coffin-like appearance, although the sides were slatted rather than solid.

It's hard in comments like this to discern a writer's motivation when all we have is the words. The benign "gallows humor" of a person working in mental health can come across just the same as someone else's uneducated or mean-spirited derision.

I sincerely hope that all ATV riders wear proper protective equipment, especially helmets. Brain injuries can really make a person "crazy." One of the scariest things about traumatic brain injuries is that in civilian life, they are nearly all preventable.
