If I/husband have a serious medical issue (stroke/shock/heart attack) and an ambulance is called, I was told that we would not be able to request being taken to another hospital but MUST be brought to The Villages Hospital.

Thank You.

It's not a simple question. Depends on the circumstances and a hospital's current load, capacity and capabilities.
