HOSPITALISED is what i would say.
BUT if it is its actually spely HOSPITALIZED
so may be im not right but my guess is it is.

There's a set of rules there F64293?thread=142843&skip=260&show=20#p2866866 (possibly not the latest, though, but it is referred to vowels counting as two guesses).
Besides, I think that "...IZED" is American spelling and "...ISED" British spelling, so HOSPITALISED would be correct (as would be HOSPITALIZED).

My dictionary only gives it with a z which I find very surprising. Perhaps it is a word which we have imported from America. In the past people were admitted to hospital and then discharged. Nowadays they seem to be hospitalized and then released. How language changes!

Well, I'd say I'm not too reliable on these matters though. Chambers online seems to accept both versions (though pretends not to find the word if you look for "hospitalise" 
)
