This dood should lose his job.

none of us were there...

but to arrest her "then" just because she had a warrant when shes puking blood all over the floor.... not only was it rediculous ....

its totally outrageous!! and they were not protecting and serving in that situation and only added more to her imediate stress....

you go to the emergency room when it's an real emergency

pain is one thing ...i waited an hour when i went....and it was only a matter of time before i ripped the leather gurney i was on...it hurt that bad...

but this poor lady was bleeding profusely... and was in seriously bad condition and they still did nothing

they should sue them all for millions of dollars,,, now if they were working on her in the OR and she died during treatment
then thats a very different situation....

what a tradegy, that was someones mom, daughter, and she was treated like crap in a place that's supposed to take care of you..... all i know is ALOT of people are going to be in ALOT of trouble.......

maybe she was treated like crap because the triage nurse thought she was an illegal.

I worked as a Manager in the ED for years and can relate to this story. We had frequent flyers that basically lived in our waiting room. Stories like this are tragic and it's horrible that it takes an event like that to initiate policy change. It's one of the reasons why I left healthcare. Staff in the ED are so stressed out and with unions invloved, insurance companies, and hospital management, and state and federal govt constraints it takes so long to have things changed. Scary!

I can't believe the officer ran her and found a warrant. Thats the last thing I would have done. Someone should have called an ambulance and had her brought to another facility.
