I’m not surprised, as even in Spain’s best hospitals... patient care is not the same as here or even in places like Germany. My daughter had a terrible experience in Barcelona’s University hospital a few years ago...she cut her leg on an escalator at the airport. They failed to clean her wound properly and refused to give her antibiotics. By the time she arrived in Germany, she had an infection from the stitches and was put on a very heavy course of antibiotics to prevent the infection from reaching her bone.
Eh...we had a guy power washing vomit of the sidewalk that was deposited there from our Dallas patient.
I don’t think Spain has a market on lapses...lol
Actually, Spanish hospitals are pretty good... if they’re private hospitals. Spanish general hospitals are like county or state general hospitals anywhere, that is, overcrowded and nearly useless.
I’m surprised that University Hospital was so bad, though. They’re actually a leading research hospital, but of course, that may not go all the way down the line.
