Take my mom, a 47 year old immuno-compromised woman with diabetes, nerve damage, a herniated disk and myriad health issues who has tested positive for Covid. She had intense chest pain, issues breathing, and was literally squalling at the top of her lungs. It took 3 hours to get her into a room. I had to beg the unempathetic employees to please help her. They hadn't even taken her to triage in the 3 hours we were there. At the reception the man told me there were 5 or 6 patients in front of me yet after 4 went back, he still told me there were 6 ahead of me. Im aware of how emergency rooms work and the fact that certain people who are in more situations dire move up in line. Yet somehow it took her nearly passing out to "move up". Finally when a nurse came out, I believe her name was something akin to Latasha, I asked if I could come back with her which wasn't allowed. That's all fair and good, but I begged her to keep me posted and told her we'd been waiting three hours so I needed her desperately to hurry-- After all I had been listening to my mother wailing in pain for three hours-- her retort was instead to argue with me, saying they don't control the wait times. I wasn't even attempting to argue with her at this point I was worried about my mother so I pointed at the door and said "Just take her back there, we've been waiting for three hours" to which she replied, "Who are you talking to? I know it's not me." I had to continue literally begging her to take my mom instead of arguing. Sorry my frantic trembling tone wasn't to her satisfaction as I told her to hurry. Im glad she found time to argue amidst my mothers anguish. Worst hospital ever. Finding someone who actually cares there is about as easy as finding a needle...
Read moreI'll never forget the night I brought one of my patients into this hell hole. We came into the ER aroind 11: 30 PM and waited on the ER doctor while my 83 year old patient was in agony, and then about 20 minutes later, this "doctor" waltzes in and laughs at my patient. My patient was vomiting up blood and was in pain and was screaming, this doctor just laughed at him. Then he left. At that point I had been taking care of this special man for several years so I knew that this wasn't normal. Then a team of "nurses" came in to shove a tube down my poor patients throat to see what was in his stomach. They did way more harm than good. Long story short, they wound up transferring my dear, sweet patient to a much better hospital down in Tallahassee where they discovered that he had ruptured his esophagus and then after arriving at the hospital, his poor body couldn't take anymore, and he had a heart attack and he left this world. This was about 6 years ago and I think about that sweet man every day. Even though he was in his 80's, and I was in my early 30s, he was truly the best friend I had. And I wish that I could have done more for him. But I did hold his hand every night even though he would beg me to get in bed with him and hold him. I never did. But sometimes wish I had. Just so he could have felt that somebody loved him. I quit nursing school after I lost him and immediately got in the massage therapy program. I couldn't do nursing anymore, or have my heart break like that ever again. Do your self a favor and never go to CCRMC in Moultrie Georgia, Colquitt County. I'd rather chew broken glass than send anyone I cared about to that uncaring, sociopathic place. That night...
