We were dropped off in Puerto Rico and took the ambulance to the hospital. We were totally on our own to find food, get care, get to the airport and fly back to the US.
Sitting in the hallway of the emergency room and trying to find someone who spoke English and trying to get care was not for the faint of heart. Hospital care and staff and protocols certainly not what we encounter in the US
