[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A family member arrived at a DC area hospital by ambulance following an injury. The ER staff immediately diagnosed him with a broken hip (correctly) based on info from the paramedics (that is, they didn't actually examine him) then they treated him with contempt, ignoring him for four hours without pain medication. I could only assume they thought he wss an addict despite the obvious evidence of a serious and extremely painful accident.[/quote] That's possible. But knowing DC hospitals, I would assume that the hospital was full of other life-threatening emergencies. A man with a broken hip isn't in danger of dying in 4 hours. [/quote] If elderly, he is.[/quote]
