What color were these nurses.

When my mom, dad, and brother have gone into hospitalization, their nurses were mostly black women.

And I’ve found the quality of medical care to be in serious decline. Third world doctors with no bedside manner.

And my parents both suffered life threatening complications from being taken off meds or otherwise affected while they were hospitalized for a different condition (like heart surgery).

“The nurses, however, dismissed her initial CT scan request and performed an ultrasound instead.”

Maybe the nurses know how much radiation dose a CT delivers?

Seems to make sense to try ultrasound first, then progress to CT scan. The CT scan is not without risks.
