What has elderly people choking on their own sick have to do with mixed wards?
I have not seen any mixed wards, but what difference does having the men on one side have and women on the other make to personal safety, and dignity ?

Well, if we go down the route of patients privacy dignity, have a male nurse is more intrusive than having a trans on your ward.
My view is stop the elderly needlessly suffering on ward first before kicking up a stick about tras people on a ward.
