Hospital Emergency room

[glenn57]

for the past while now i think i can say in all honesty i'm well versed in emergency room attendence.

is it REALLY that hard to get into a regular medical clinic appt to see a doctor vs just going to the ER??  from what i've seen with the exception of an ambulance coming.......i really have not seen what i call a true emergency. even then it takes forever to get taken care of. while i dont really know what is actually wrong with most them i dont see them as an emergency.

even my mom, untill yesterday the ER doc told her she should see her family doctor and have what they called a STANDING ORDER. that way she avoids the ER and is assured of getting help with just a day or so advanced notice.

I can't imagine Glenn.  I am sure it is a learning process at every bend in the road.   You are a good man and that does count for something.

Well, our ED can have 8hr+ waits some days. And almost daily, we close our doors due to high census loads.

What is really stupid, is prior to this we shut down our urgent care Dept so now EVERYONE goes through the ED.

Always say you have chest pain…that’ll bump you to the top.😉🤣
