hospitalising
Committing for treatment
Hospitalising is the British spelling of hospitalizing—admitting someone to a hospital for treatment.
The word implies serious enough injury or illness to require inpatient care: The accident ended up hospitalising three people.
It can also describe the act of sending or committing someone: They're hospitalising him for observation.
