Hi, My Wife Has Been Diagnosed With Psychosis And Sectioned.

Hi,
My wife has been diagnosed with psychosis and sectioned. My concern is that I went with her to hospital on Sunday night and requested they test her for drugs or unwanted substances when she was brought in on Sunday as sbe was out all night the night before. Then I requested for the result of the test, despite numerous assurances that they will go and find out and provide me with the information, no one came back to me. We left the university hospital on Monday night to the psychiatric hospital. They shared the result of the pregnancy test with me and discused her assessment and decision and plan with me, but when I called this morning, to request yet again, the result of the drug and other substance test which I have consistently asked for, I was told I needed a power of attorney for that information to be shared or disclosed to me. This is very confusing and I need some clarity.
