And now. What caring and competent primary physician wants to send another of their patients to that ER, knowing another patient can likely experience that or WORSE??
Seems like everyone ought to be looking at whether their doctor can refer them to another hospital and ER, or if they can ONLY refer to this one!!
And who's going to clean house on this hospital's
administration that forms/maintains a set-up like this, that exposes patients to unnecessary dangers, and exposes the hospital and ER doctors and nurses to huge malpractice possibilities?
Administration isn't going to fire themselves. I think the Morse Family needs to get involved and make heads roll. They would never keep sloppiness like this in management of their TV enterprises that get things DONE, and done right!
