I think the main point here is that the detective somehow thought he had the power to force medical staff to undertake medical procedures they didn't want to perform. What's next? "Doc, you'd better perform this appendectomy immediately or I'm throwing you in the clink."

They have the same right in the states, but I don't know if bystanders have the right to intervene, which is why I don't think the hospital staff are able to do anything other than(ironically) calling the police.
