I have seen that happen only rarely in a real hospital. On TV, you will see two or three doctors and a whole gang of nurses attending a single patient. I have never, ever, ever seen that in a real hospital. The main thing in hospitals is that you always have to wait a long, long time for anything, whether it is pain medication, food, or a visit from the doctor. The nurses are all sitting at computers, doing who knows what. But they are not observing or assisting the patients. In the meantime, if your family member cannot feed himself, you must make sure to be there at meal times, because the nurses will not feed him. They leave the food for a few hours and then take it away. And this is in a "good" hospital.Rosemary Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14188485725647779804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-82797377683673456952009-04-09T10:43:00.000-04:002009-04-09T10:43:00.000-04:00Emergency rooms certainly aren't like the one depi...Emergency rooms certainly aren't like the one depicted on TV on ER.<BR/><BR/>Right now the emergency room at our local hospital has it's parking lot torn up--and the other parking lot is always full. Hope I don't have to go anytime soon.<BR/><BR/>I've been to ours a lot over the years, dad, mom, grandson more than once for all of them. Frankly, it was much better than what you experienced and everyone complains about ours.<BR/><BR/>Marilyn<BR/>a.k.a. F.M. MeredithMarilyn Meredith a.k.a. F. M.
