Treat’em and Street’em. Gotta love ER staff.
Maybe she wanted to go out for a smoke?
“I wonder what they did with her clothes. Pretty sure she didn’t arrive at the hospital in a hospital “gown”.”
That is what I’m wondering. You know she did not show up to the hospital in middle of winter with no coat or shoes, come on now.
Didn’t bammy say grandma should maybe take a pill??
I have been hospitalized a few times for minor surgeries
emergency room visits, etc. They just don't let you go without proper discharge. There was some sort of serious screw up in this case.
I worked at a homeless shelter in the 1990’s. It was common practice for a large hospital nearby to give patients with nowhere to go a taxi ride to the shelter. They would also sometimes give someone a taxi voucher and a voucher for one night at a motel. In the morning, the motel would be calling the shelter: “We got this guy here with nowhere to go.”
The security people put her things on the bench in the bus stop. This bag may have contained her clothes.
Unfortunately you are wrong, they may have treated you better but I have personally seen this or similar incidents first hand where a taxi or police car drives up and drops the patient off frequently still in hospital gown and then takes off
Believe me I know the difference and it is by no means an isolated case
I think Moo had that job in Chicago and go paid for it very well.
“Maybe she wanted to go out for a smoke?”
A co-worker, that could never go for very long without a cigarette, found a door near his hospital room that he could use.
Until it locked behind him.
Yes, in flipflops and a shirt that ties in the back.
He had a long walk outside to return to his room.
