Search it out and see AMERICAN HOSPITALS HAVE shut down labor and delivery for not being profitable burn 🔥 units for next for not being profitable and now pediatrics? Shut them down they say -not profitable. I guess they put a price tag on our heads maybe they can tattoo the barcode on mine to see if I get it or not!!!
@user-zp6ff2gr4n That's an overused question that solves nothing, and only distracts from trying to find real solutions. My purpose in responding was to agree that healthcare is more a business than service & humans shouldn't be treated like garbage.
Pretty sure it's litteraly 1st world healthcare. Watch as we let all the homeless people live inside the hospitals "wE aRe OvER CrOWdED" fucking idiots
I've been treated this way for years and years in Central Florida.......as a homeless person!! Mostly turned away and refused help at the ER with various medical issues, then escorted off premises by security! The thing that really infuriates ME is now that I live IN A HOUSE through my church's incredible help, they know my face and name! And the hospitals STILL tell me I am homeless and won't allow me to prove otherwise, and ask me to leave or cops will be called! All I can see in this, is the hospital calling 911 about a homeless person at the ER merely asking for medical help needing to be trespassed!!???
Protocol IS-- if you are well to do, they can not discharge patients from the hospital without a friend or family or guardian present to drive that patient home!! For safety. But the homeless get dumped in their own, WITHOUT ANY TREATMENT!
Jesus loves you ❤ ✝️ Jesus is Savior of the world ❤ Jesus saves from hell. Jesus died for us on the cross. He rose again and is coming soon. We are living in the end times. Take refuge in His name ❤ ✝️ Just by the blood of Jesus that our sin is washed away. Not by our own works so no one can boast. Every one is a sinner and falls short of the glory of God. We need Jesus. We are living in the end time. Take a look at the Bible. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand. Repent and return to Jesus ✝️. Cry out to Him.

@danielsdiary8371 thank you this is it we're at the precipice of the end where everyone will figure out who was the only being that ever care for them..
Really need the full story from both sides. So many family members do not want to take their family home, because they want to be free to go out, party, what ever. So we need to get the story from both sides first before making judgment.
Hey Carol, possible solution to your horror: 1. Hire an attorney to prosecute the perpretators and anyone involved 2. You should come back work at the ER and teach them how it should be done. (I bet you would be kicking people out of the ER once you've been loaded with annoying patients coming to the ER for some nonsense complaint) 3. Go to your local ER and pick some homeless patients and bring them to your house. Imagine how fun it would be making new friends you can hang out with and all the fun things y'all will do (cooking, applying make up to each other, hoarding things to your home, etc) Your comment won't help fix the situation, but your actions will. What are you willing to do? Probably nothing my horrified ex-nurse.
@@alphacentaury actually I couldn't get hired. I'm too old unless it's just charting. Although I worked for years doing direct nursing in varied settings, mostly neurosurgery, and then doing investigations of medical facilities and nursing homes. Some people should never be around patients or anyone vulnerable. If you think it's somehow objectionable to hold abusers accountable you should probably find a new profession.
@@CarolB-ku2fe Oh, no need cause I left nursing already. I couldn't put up with healthcare BS anymore. I was an ER nurse, so I know exactly what's going on there. Too bad you were not brave enough to come down to the ER when you were a nurse. It's easy to give an opinion when you have never experienced it live (especially during covid).
@@alphacentaury PS, I have paid for several homeless people to stay in decent hotels and helped them get housing.As an older adult with multiple health issues I do what I can. when I was a nurse I was floated to the ER often.. more than once my coworkers and I used a fund we setup among us to help someone get lodging until SocServ could place them .we also bought coats etc from thrift stores, had them cleaned and gave them out. But people were nicer then and there were fewer homeless people.
I was dumped by a hospital when I was 18 after being hit by a car. I had a massive concussion, memory loss and convulsions. As soon as I was stabilized, they took me outside, dumped me from my wheelchair and took the chair back inside. The hospital wasn’t far from the freeway and I dragged myself down to an underpass and lived in a hole in the ground for about 30 days. I drank from mud puddles and ate garbage to survive. This was in 1981. I finally got my act together enough to realize the hospital had kept all my clothes and my keys and wallet. I managed to limp up to the hospital and get my stuff back before it was donated to charity. I spent the first 30 days living in a dirty hospital gown. Fortunately it was July when this happened or I wouldn’t have survived.
@@anderfu8273 I just about do have the homeless in my living room. I live here in San Francisco, California, and we have homelessness on a level higher. I've never seen as many homeless people this bad since the 80s AIDS epidemic. People are literally dying on the street. Let's first address the old, "Well, San Francisco blah blah blah." Our situation is no difference from many cities and states are struggling with. I see it every day. Treat em with the same respect you'd treat anyone.
Exactly!!! I say 5 years minimum hard HARD time Federal time for each board member..... televise it so all the other dueshbags can see that when you treat nobodies like this this could happen to you!
@aeonsbeyond so you are expecting them to provide expensive care for free. Legally they are only required to provide life saving care. The problem is a for profit healthcare system. We don't have a healthcare system in the US for anyone who can't afford it.
No hospital can refuse anyone emergency medical care. If you can't pay the bill, they make a workable payment plan. It does not impact your credit score. That hospital needs to be sued.
Don't make this about immigrants. They aren't getting anything either. The whole world has gone to shit because politicians in every modern country have been bought and paid for by big multi-national corporations so that the 1/10 of 1% can hoard all of the worlds wealth. For profit healthcare, prisons, schools etc. are killing this country. There are some things that just should never be for profit.
@@kjk4795is that why they charge 40$ for a single ibuprofen tablet? And tne insurance companies in the US are the greatest money gobblers… a procedure (robotic surgery hip replacement) costs 5000€ in Greece, all inclusive, with a private hospital/doctor… In the USA, “Without insurance, the cost typically ranges from $31,000 to $45,000 for the surgery alone. “… tell me again how hospitals are not getting enough money. Of course it’s free if you use the National healthcare system here in Greece.
As an EMT I was doing a non emergency transport where a patient was being discharged out of a hospital and the destination to drop them off wasn't an address. All it said was red van and the name of the street it was on. This man was in his 80's and could barely stand let alone walk. We asked if he could be sent to a facility and due to lack of insurance there was nowhere for him to go and that we had to bring him there. We drove to this red van and it wasn't even a running vehicle. It was junk in someones yard. We contacted a shelter ourselves and filed a report with the state. Not sure what was done about it but I'll never forget how gut wrenching and heart breaking that situation was. Humanity deserves so much more. There should be more programs for the uninsured and homeless instead of just dumping them like garbage to get them out of the way. Its inhumane
Becuz yes! The ppl carrying out heinous orders ARE liable Don’t do wrong just becuz ur getting pd Do the right thing N shout the names of the perps LOUD
@@lorisalim4598Medicare does not pay for long term care. If the person had a qualifying diagnosis it would pay 80% of a rehabilitation stay for 90 days. That is it.
@@triciagrant2315That doesn't mean he couldn't have utilized the local shelter, or availed himself of the numerous social programs available to the indigent. OP even stated he sent a referral there. There is a large portion of the homeless that do not want help. OP: don't feel bad, it's likely your patient was one of these people. It is what it is, and there's not much anyone can do besides force him to change.
Oh, apparently people that can't pay are putting a strain on the medical system and it's costs. In other words they can't afford to treat you if you're homeless or don't have insurance. They will die on the streets and this is the good old USA.
@@mo-whack6790 Its not just that hospital but all hospitals, they got use to treating people like shit for 3 years and making bank on those who would jump through hoops to even enter, now that they are no longer making profit off of those they can mark covid; they are just treating everyone like shit
You really think suing is going to fix the problem? Throwing money at someone's face is a great way to get them to shut up so the facility can continue business as usual. WE NEED REFORM, NOT LAWSUITS!
They only have a liability to stabilize the patient who doesn't have insurance coverage. This is what I was told while picking up my friend at the curb.
That picture of that elderly lady on the ground and the other elderly lady that couldn't breathe is absolutely heartbreaking. Those "medical professionals " take an oath to do no harm. Disgusting.
It’s not the doctors and nurses, it’s the wealthy administrators-I could assure of you that-because if a celebrity were to stay there you’d see a completely different standard of care.
she was breathing fine, I didn't see any respiratory distress on camera. she probably went to the ER for a painkiller. I invite you to go to your local ER or shelter. I'm sure more than one will use your help. You don't need to take a oath to serve others, and in turn will help you digest that disgusting feeling you experiencing now. Blessings my friend!
Regardless of what the hospital does as a whole, doctors and nurses working at facilities engaged in patient dumping should permanently lose their licenses.
Whoever told security to remove the patient and any security that actually did it are liable. They should be blamed. The person who made the order to remove the patient is to blame for basically saying "remove them". The security are to blame because they didn't refuse to do the inhumane act. If the security refused to perform the inhumane act and got fired, they would surely have a lawsuit they could file against their employer. An employer can't order an employee to do something illegal or inhumane and then fire them for not doing it.
Seeing that elderly lady lying on the cold ground was heartbreaking. There's no way I could remain employed with a facility that assigns me to do this. I'm not shocked, though. The moral degradation in society is pervasive.
Stop reacting with your emotions, these people are sucking up all the resources of these hospitals. They expect to live at these hospitals and be treated like kings/queens. Most of these people are better off dead. They don’t contribute to anything, they only leech off of the system. The US healthcare system isn’t perfect (needs to be fixed), but these aren’t the people who need the help. Medical-needy people are complete leeches.
And it's going to get much worse! Not to mention treason and flooding the country with guns and assault weapons then staging a coup to overthrow the US government and still the GOP gets away with it!
@@alphacentauryWow they might not be hotel but they are supposed to care for the sick. That woman that couldn't breath needed help not to be dumped. If a jury even found them guilty of dumping then there is a problem. Sounds like you are pretty self centered mate. These are sick people.
As a healthcare worker myself, I am disgusted and embarrassed at that facility’s conduct towards their patients! And they have the nerve to call themselves healthcare providers?!?! I’m going to share this video with some of my coworkers because this needs to be a public service announcement.
Thankyou this needs to be shared with all americans and more media need to walk the line and show what's really going on in america!! To many evil people in America now!! To fire someone who speaks out the truth!!! Barbaric security and hospital staff to let this happen in america!!
I am healthcare worker too, and can tell you that even the so-called nonprofit hospitals are all about money. And then have the nerve to say that they care....bad leadership!
You Breeders and Pronatalists shouldn't be complaining about it. You are the ones support this sadistic cruel System by having more Children you are continuing this cycle of Cruelty and Pro-suffering Society.
I went to a hospital in Atlantic City with pneumonia, the doctor was trying to get me discharged and get me to leave . If it was not for a nurse who stood up and spoke up for me I probably would have died that night if I had been sent away , I got so bad that night I thought I was going to die . Imagine if I had been home alone. To Thant nurse my God bless you for speaking up when you knew a situation was not right , for being a courageous, righteous, just and a moral person. You saved a life that day you yourself made the difference.
Nurses and outside social service workers are very often the last line of advocacy for people in hospitals or in need of medical care. A travel nurse saved my wife from the results of a doctor's horribly botched hip surgery.
The nurses carry the heavy burden of health care. While being understaffed, underpaid and grossly overworked. And they still make it their business to advocate for patients. 😔
@@lamoinette23What?? Literally every nurse I know constantly and I mean constantly brags about their high pay. The overworked AND underpaid are the CNAs....those are the aides that do all of the dirty work for the nurses. They are underpaid.
You're very smart old lady. So, if you by any chance are around that hospital and need emergency services you will be f@*k#d! You should never go to a hospital take care of yourself at home instead. I'm sure one of your people will know what to do to save you.
I am a retired RN. To say that I am shocked by this atrocity is an understatement. The CEO of that hospital, and all other hospital employees involved, need to face criminal charges. Paying out millions of dollars in judgments is, sadly, changing nothing. Criminal charges against all involved is necessary. If this does not happen, this will never end.
It's not at all shocking. This has been happening a long time... especially to people that don't have insurance to cover things, or people that they can't find secondary facilities for. I'm 35 and able to take care of myself, I just happen to need 4 weeks of IV vanco and meropenom. I've been clean for 3 years, I'm a compliant MAT patient and I still almost had to let them take my PICC line out and go home to die of sepsis essentially because there were no facilities that are willing to deal with MAT or the people that take it. Fortunately, I have a physician for a mother who knows my rights and lit up everyone who would answer a phone. Now, I'm otherwise healthy with a home to go to and and family to help me and they attempted to essentially abandon me and let me die at home...imagine that situation for someone whose mental health isn't being treated that's got nowhere to go, no idea what is and isn't allowed to happen to them, lacks the ability to stand up for themselves or even a phone to call a patient advocate or ombudsman, and has no family to fight. You shouldn't be shocked. Homeless people have been persona non grata since the beginning of our country, it's not a new concept and the healthcare system here has been corrupt and discriminatory since before I was born, before my mom became a doctor, so definitely while you were working in it 😒
Correct. The hospital needs to get closed down and the people in charge, prosecuted. I bet they collect medicare $ from the government. That is a big crime, besides being unethical. They are also FRAUDS !
judgments in some cases just tax payer dollars being redistributed … with the added inconvenience of civil court dates. But with no one being charged with negligence.
@@rebeccasteinke4357 thing is thats not how its done in most of the world. Even though there are delays with universal single payer systems this level of grose inhumanity would not be seen ever. If it did those involved would be charged immediately. All that money wasted to kill foreigners in foreign countries but no effort made to look after each other. A nation without propper priorities will crumble.
So maybe all you RNs can go work for free for a while so the hospital can build a fund. You are making good money and could really make a difference for some people.
RIP to the lady who died after the interview. The mom of the dude in the wheelchair. May she get the rest from this wicked world that she desperately needs.
That was sad that poor guy probably doesn't have no one in his life. Wonder how he is doing. They should be doing more for these people. There should be more help available and maybe housing available as well.
@@henrymartin8997 We voted for this medicare system. It didn't get changed under Trump or BIden because this is what Americans want. So your hands aren't clean from this either.
Where is justice? It's already reached out to other countries in the world about this incident. There needs to be a reform in the whole entire system! Hey Biden how about actually taking care of this issue huh? Not even in Brazil that is a 3rd world country you would see that!
You think they are the only one or that this is new. Happened to a friend 20 years ago, thrown out onto the street to die from an ailement she was born with but which treatment would let her live a normal life span. But the health INDUSTRY determined she wasn't worth treating so threw her out to die, leaving behind a husband and kids. And that was a CHARITY hospital (allegedly, no charity being shown to the ill though) yet her ownly crime was to have been born with a medical condition needing diagnosis and treatment. Which they couldn't be bothered to do. The US is a cruel country with NO CONCERN AT ALL for anyone unable to make money to keep the overlords in their lives of luxury and able to buy new luxury boats and luxury holiday houses overseas. China is better than the US, heck even ''uncivilized, third world countries'' like Brazil or Russia are often better than the US.
What happens when they have no legal duty to allow a person to live their free without payment? They cannot let every single patient stay for eternity, because they have nowhere else to go. Imagine if a person that you do not have responsibility for came into your house and refused to leave, because he didn't have a home to go to... and then imagine that's 100 people. We do not have socialized healthcare in this country for a reason... because it's FAR FAR WORSE that what we have here. In the end though, as terrible as it is, we cannot FORCE hospitals to keep patients for any longer than they are needed to remain there. We already FORCE them to take patients who cannot pay while they are in a serious condition... but we cannot also Force them to keep them indefinitely. It would immediately crash the entire health system and then we'd end up like all the other socialist crap holes that have entirely destroyed their own countries and healthcare systems. The healthcare system is not and Should Not be responsible for housing people, especially without any payment and especially if the people don't need to be there, but will take up valuable space for people that do need to be there.
You can blame the G.O.P.- they failed our country on Universal Healthcare- So here we are and anyone of us can potentially end up in the same situation when we hit this age if the G.O.P. has a say so.
The medical industry is EVIL. PURE EVIL. 95% of medical workers are actually incapable of any medical ability. They all have a god complex. They will let good people die in waiting rooms. They kick you out for being sick because the staff is incompetent at curing you of anything.
We're failing as a society. Our elderly, veterans, our sick, and children...anyone who's vulnerable is being treated like garbage. People who are addicted, or mentally ill get kicked to the curb. People say, "why don't they get help? Why won't they get treatment?" When they try to they get put on the bottom of a long waiting list. It's as if they want to *discourage* them. We're failing at every turn. 😔
We are failing because the government is more concerned about protecting and promoting debauched, amoral, pedophiles and queers and mutilating children and adults for profit. Also. our president is corrupt and retarded.
@@mrp410: Refugees are not illegal & they aren’t put in “5 star hotels”. But as long as people resist universal healthcare in favor of for profit hospitals & insurance companies, this will continue to happen.
As a nurse I have never seen anything like that. If I ever do I would report them to the hospital accreditation boards and to medicare/medicade. That is deplorable and unethical. “First do no harm!” That is an oath medical staff are supposed to live by.
@@strongmermaid4651 should have done it through the anonymous reporting system. But if I saw that I would quit anyway. No way I could work for a hospital like that.

I see stuff like this now, makes me glad that I am a compassionate person. What sucks is the people they toss out is someone's loved one too. The world is often times cruel 🤷🏾♂️
Well this is what you and your neighbors wanted because excuses and not to physically do anything about it. So become the joke of the world and have at it😂
after watching a 7 minute video designed to trigger you emotionally, purely for views, you have responded by generalizing your anger against every hospital in the entire country.... you find it unacceptable and you want change. however, this clip doesn't represent true hospital conditions, across the country this is the danger of modern media
Former Hospital Security Officer: Most of these PTs are mentally ill, drug-addicted, and homeless. The police department doesn't want to deal with them, so they call an ambulance to make them the hospital's problem. I've walked dozens of patients to the sidewalk and sent them on their way. We try to call their family or a taxi, but they usually can't pay. Which puts pressure on the nursing staff to pay for their ride out of pocket. These homeless cases are very commonly abusive to staff, disorderly, or openly hostile. I've seen multiple assaults on campus of these crazy people attacking our staff. It's security's job to escort them off the property when they have been discharged. The real issue is that the case workers assigned to these cases are overworked and deprived of the resources needed to properly help these people.
With those ailments she needs long-term round-the-clock care, a hospital can only do so much. Those nursing facilities where she should be in are REALLY the ones that need to be investigated.
@@thefox47545a hospital should be doing discharge planning and coordinating care to transfer to the appropriate facility NOT dumping on the cold streets
A friend was homeless. He had a heart defect. He was in Dallas,Tx. He was a vet. He was having heart pains so he went to the VA hospital in Dallas. They knew he was homeless. They told him that he was just looking for food and a warm bed. They demanded that he leave. They were rude and condescending. They set him an appointment later that week. He dropped dead on the street just a few days later. If they would have listened to him and checked it out, he would probably still be alive today. VA sucks.
Yeah and often times homeless people get more sick then anyone I think in some situations they are just looking for a warm bed but if your out in the element's for that long it can take a toll on you and sometimes they don't want to deal with them because some of those bed spaces are needed for people that just got shot. They also don't care if your a woman and some guy just beat the hell out of you as long as he wasn't strangling you or you didn't die. What's worse is some of these nurses were women you think they would have stepped up but if there's men controling the hospital sometimes they can't they have to consider the suspects reputation before your safety I really do hope they start holding some of these hospitals accountable because they hire the wrong people that have probably never been attacked before so of course there not going to care if someone gives you a concussion because it happened to you and not them.
Sad that 1st he was homeless then the staff denied him help as if the food the hospital patients eat are being bought by this staff members. Sad he died as a result of dumbfks at the hospital
That's beyond disgusting. As with our Vets they don't get the treatment they deserve. If you risk your life for your Country and come home, you should never have to worry about money again. A vet was sweeping floors at Walmart! Wtf! He should have been in his home, feet up and never have to work again. Our Government is imagine yours is similar they leave office never having to worry about money with the monies they will receive until they die. They do nothing useful, at least not for Canadians in Eastern Canada. They teach them things that they never get over. Then have to fight veteran affairs for what's rightfully theirs. So wrong. I've dated a wonderful man but the effects of what he saw and went through he needed isolation. My friend tells me things when he's drinking which is a lot because he's not able to cope with what he's reliving in his head. It's sad. Our governments need a rehaul of the laws and looking after the soldiers the elderly and single mothers and fathers who didn't expect to be raising little humans alone.
"No shape to care for him at home. She died after this interview" Wow I'm speechless and shocked. It probably stressed her out to the point where she had a heart attack. RIP to you dear lady
I have never been as disgusted with my country as I am currently. What kind of person shops an old person out of a wheelchair on the sidewalk in a hospital gown in 30 degree temps. This needs to be a criminal case.
I'm a retired ER nurse and have multiple chronic medical issues. I got Covid last year and was advised by my doctor to go to the ER ASAP because of my breathing issues. I was seen by a triage nurse only and sent to the waiting area for 5 plus hours. I was treated horribly, like I was roadkill. I finally called a family member to come get me as I was so weak, I couldn't walk on my own. I treated myself and it took me several weeks to start feeling some better. When you are having breathing difficulties it is scary, more so when the medical staff act like they don't care. To top it all off, I was sent a bill for the ER visit! The 20 plus years that I worked as an ER nurse, never was anyone treated like that. Never! Hospitals have gotten away from caring for the sick and are all for profits now. Hope someone sues the heck out of the hospitals doing this to people.
People do realize that a lot of people are looking for a place to stay and refuse to do what the doctors ask. Hospitals are not motels and if you’re not complying with the doctors you need to go.
@@toywrench1 I did listen to the whole thing. The problem is drug addicts and homeless people that choose their lifestyle but also want extra treatment. The hospital nor the staff a social workers and are only there to get people the medical help they need and then are supposed to be discharged.
So you are ok with dumping that old woman on the sidewalk in the freezing cold?...My god woman,are you serious?😢.....you are definitely not Wonder Woman!
Lawyers of Louisville, I'm talking to you. This is your time to shine. Help those that have been "dumped," sue the crap out of this trash facility, please.
I lost a security job over this. They made us take an old man out of the hospital because he had no insurance, ID, anything and obviously no way to pay. I stayed with him and called an ambulance to take him to a different hospital. The security company was MAAAD at me but they can eat worms for all I care. Some hospitals just care about money.
They are homeless because they use drugs and alcohol. They take handouts, but don’t stay in shelters because they the rules there don’t allow them to use drugs and alcohol. They have no means to pay hospital bills. They don’t pay tax. Who is committing crimes?
Exactly. These individuals are true terrorists and should be in prison for the rest of their lives. But then again this is all part of the plan so don't expect anything to be remedied. Quite the opposite.
Don't believe everything you hear on the news...if you really were an RN and worked at an inner-city hospital you would know exactly what was going on....there is more to the story...
Yes, sad and pathetic. We dump our citizens and welcome illegals with open arms no vetting , no care even if they’re actually gang members just welcome them in with open arms and dump our own citizens. It gets more astonishing every day.
The lack of compassion is leaving me shaken. This is completely unacceptable. Any society that is ok with this sort of treatment of its citizens, particularly those who are most vulnerable is doomed to collapse.
You share the same perspective, like really ? 2023? Why Is everything and everyone categorised as a"problem" or "issue" Surely that doesn't depreciate ones value as a living , breathing soul, if this is humanity, I dread to imagine the world 1-2 generations from now. Utterly tragic and really heartbreaking. I hope those who found this really emotive , can come together to create something that will work going forward. Like for real, how many empty homes, apartments even hotel rooms , each and every night . Where is the charity and "movement" behind this ? Meghan , Harry? This is where there must be help, real palpable and prolonged help, the kind that ought to already be established to ensure those most at risk are not only "seen" but are "caught" and given a hand up not a hand out , arming them with real life skills, that can equip them through the hardships and to the other side where there is light, there is possibilities aplenty! And yet , instead of thriving and Living , too many folks are merely existing. that's not okay! For too long the unacceptable has become the accepted. There ough to be a health and social care reform that really does look at this and come up with an alternative plan, not every person will fit the set mould and it's tragic to me that it seems all is so quickly , too quickly (!) giving in and giving up. Where is the light in an otherwise darkened life? Where is the humanity and hope ? Bless you and your kindness.i appreciate your heart @Cornerboy73 It's folk like you that will bring about the changes we need to see in the world .
And imagine ,this is the country what won World War 2 . Those Trillions what you blundered From Germany ( and nuking Japan ) Should make you better of where they are ? Right? I guess that what happens, when being Satans lapdog... You get what you get !
I am a clinical social worker (Masters degree in Social Work) who has worked in the hospital system for nearly two decades I can tell you that these stories are clear Medicare violations concerning unsafe discharge planning. As for the quote-unquote social worker at this facility I will be calling in the morning to speak to their social worker and if in fact this individual is an actual social worker I will be reporting to the licensing board and the NASW. There is no excuse for this behavior this is a culture problem within this facility and you can trace it probably from the top down I can tell you that unless they're lying totally in their documentation that a Medicare audit would likely cost them in the hundreds of thousands in fines, which I'd say they clearly deserve. To the Administration at this facility, I'd suggest ya'll start shifting that horrible unethical care model to a correct model or you'll be banned from accepting any federal funding and shit down soon after.
59 yo white college educated male. In my 20s I smoked. Dentist would not even do a cleaning if I was a smoker. I had insurance. Never saw a dentist again, toothless at age 51.

You don't know her living situation, or if their insurance will even cover in home care, and if it does, you don't know if they are even aware that they have this option. The hospital is supposed to help them with these things, shit for brains. Smh.
@batgirlp5561 clearly you weren't paying attention. She had health issues of her own and probably didn't have a lot of money. She eventually died bc of those health issues. You expect her to be able to take care of her son in a condition like that? You don't know her life or circumstances that led to her being unable to help him so don't be such a nasty person.
As a retired/disabled R.N I find this absolutely disgusting. The CEO's need to be held accountable. The Government needs to withdraw Medicare/Medicaid funds until this is resolved!
@FactChecker.23 ACA...no more pcps...people go to ER for thier pcp or after symptoms and diseass process is unsurpassable....what is your suggestion? Where do these people go? Hospitals are usually at 100% capacity in metropolitan areas.
@@vietman79anything but kicking them out literally anything else set down some blankets get em some water and any spare medication that can atleast temporarily help with the current issue idk use ur imagination smart one
@@jilliebean6312 so you expect a doctor to waste his/her time outside doing remedial things instead of using their medical skills to save lives inside the hospital to tend to patients who are actively dying? OK smart one.
Many Hospitals contract out their Emergency Rooms; they insulate themselves from liability. It's ALL ABOUT MONEY! Emergency Departments are big bucks for the Contractors!!
@@Elaina944they are part of the problem. Its absolutely reprehensible and all partys should be accountable. Down to the security guards dumping them out
Oh really and how do you think these things should be paid for? I guarantee you voters won’t agree when they find out how much their taxes would have to go up
Disguisting, disgusting, disgusting people in the sub-comments. I bet all of them have been at a point where they didn’t have sufficient funds for a hefty hospitable trip bill. Mindless, spineless…Let God be your judge.
Years ago, I was passing a kidney stone and drove myself to the ER. When I got out of my car , I collapsed in the parking lot. Several hospital staff literally walked around me to get to the door of the ER. I lay on the pavement in absolute agony till a man came along and helped me get to the front desk - he was not a staff member, just a guy who was visiting someone.
I believe it. They all have the compassion of a gnat. I guess they're just so tired of seeing sick and complaining people, huh,? It's almost like if you can't get through the door yourself, too bad. It's pathetic!
@@DivineLightPaladinthe crazy thing is when you go to the orientation for the hospital job they always talk about helping the “poor” and healing them yet they dump them outside the hospital
