I worked in an ER where the doctors actually made fun of the psych patients.  They would call them crazy and laugh at them.  As a little old med tech, I couldn't say much.  It made me so sad though.  How should I handle this if it were to happen again?

Terrible! I know it can be hard to stand up to "superiors" at work, but it's for the benefit of the patient that you put your foot down and say "NO." Did the families of these patients ever hear anything?
