[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1845032, member: 6291"] Glad she is home. I hate to say it but we don't leave any one unattended in medical "care". My grandfather died in a hospital after having a heart attack because he had another one shortly after and they didn't hook him up to the machine or monitor him. They walked away and came back to him dead. It was a VA hospital. We had tons of issues with my grandmother when she had dementia also. I had a buddy get cut by a hog and he had to go to the emergency room. I drove him but he kept saying you don't have to stay... you don't have to stay... but I told him I'm good, I got no where to be. He lost a lot of blood and it was making him think is was going to go to the bathroom on himself. We finally flagged some on down to get help. They ordered some medicine for him. A nurse came by and gave him some thing. I made a note in my phone. Few minutes later, another nurse came by with more medicine. I questioned her and asked... what is that... what's that for? She gave me all kinds of attitude. Yall said yall wanted some thing... blah blah. I told her... I know we did... but some one already gave it to him. They were about to double up on him. I told her get me a Dr or a manager or some one that knows what's going on around here. There was a Dr and head nurse or some one there shortly. Neither were happy about the situation. A while back my son was sick for an extended period so his Dr wanted to do an echo on him with his heart valve. We went to that part of the hospital and the person there was like... we don't have some one here to do that, yall will have to come back another day, or yall will have to go to Corpus, blah blah blah. I was POed and questioning how do you not have one person on staff, it's a big hospital. My mother was with me and called my cousin (head of their dept) and she said that is BS there is some one that covers two buildings. They may not be in the building but they go back and forth as needed. My mom hung up with her and with in 5 min a guy walked up and said he was there to do the echo. A little ways in the guy says... how do ya know (my cousin). My mom was quick to say... she's my niece and and my godchild. It was at that moment, he knew he f*ed up. They were trying to get out of doing an echo on a sick... kid. How screwed up is that? I'm not saying they are all bad, but definately don't just put your blind trust in to them. [/QUOTE]
