This whole topic is difficult! To address the needs of this child and family I wonder if a better plan would have been to allow them to stay at a Women's Shelter or similar facility. It would be cheaper than the hospital, provide a certain amount of supervision ad allow a longer term plan to be put in place.
OTOH, women's shelters in some communities are running at capacity, too. Not sure about the two main ones here at present, but I know they've had issues in the past.
