I watched it on CNN a few hours ago and they wouldn't help a woman who was vomiting blood in their presence and she did there 40 minutes later. Why is this hospital still given government funding and even still be allowed to operate? Did anyone else see that news earlier? It's totally inhumane!!

I saw this one also. There funding is being withheld, properly so, until an investigation is appointed and, the hospital administration is being investigated also.
The University hospital in Vegas is like this, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see this coming out of Vegas someday.
Due to an accident we waited with my daughter, in serious condition on a gurney, for six hours for help. The doctors and nurses were taking in welfare patients, to keep their "community standing" they claimed, first, some were with kids that"felt hot" or were coughing, while my daughter was unconscious.
We took her out, against they're yelling at us and calling security, I told them I didn't under the law, have to stay and called 911, they then turned back and said we could go to call down the 911 call. I refused and the cops came, they told them they couldn't stop us, we could have anyone trying arrested for unlawful detainment. We were escorted, after they heard the story, to another hospital where we were treated right away. My daughter had a concussion.

Yes I did see it. And I could not believe what I was hearing. This poor woman had gall-stones that were trying to pass through her intestine's causing severe pain.
She had been at the hospital 2-3 times just recently & the ER gave her pain percription & sent her on her way. This time she stayed & was on a bench outside the hospital & a Policemen took her inside.
2-3 people called 911 to come & pick her up, but once the ambulances takes you to a hospital, they can not pick you up and take you to another hospital.
But the hospital nurses stood around her while she died laying on the E.R. floor. This is absolutely horrible, they need to shut-down this hospital and those supposedly professionals should be held accountable for her death.
And if I be the family I would slap them with a law-suite.

they have some sound good judgment, what boggles the innovations is how actually they got here to that end. yet there continues to be the issue of what the locals think of. i won't build disruptive issues on my sources that reason decrease values or threat to my associates. i could in no way get away with the argument approximately my rights. apparently the different those that stay close to there are allowed some say as we've not got a organic Republic, there are aspects of Democracy in our us of a. yet another factor is that 9-11 grew to become into no longer a community subject and the skill of indignant outbursts on the mosque in basic terms isn't a community subject the two. in line with danger the main innovations-boggling factor is to work out the perspective of far left Liberals in comparable circumstances the place they forget approximately unfastened speech and rights. all of them seem to prefer Fox off the air case in point. while have you ever seen a Liberal combat so fiercely for non secular rights as this?

I was shocked too. The 911 Operators who refused to get involved should be persecuted, plus the staff of the Emergency room. They killed her with their inaction. How could they say this was not an emergency, a woman is dying right in the Emergency Room and no one helps her. The only people who were concerned and called 911 were other patients waiting there. I moved from California many years ago, I have never regretted it. California is only concerned with wealthy peoples welfare, the homeless and working poor are invisible. It has become an Elitist State.

It's an atrocity. I hope that poor woman's family sues the crap out of this "hospital". I heard they had failed several inspections over the years. Why were they allowed to keep operating if they refused to correct the problems? I also heard the police came, found out the woman was wanted on a probation violation and put her in a wheelchair to take her to JAIL. She was unresponsive and they couldn't get her into the police car. The reason she was not responsive was because she was DEAD. Why, oh, why does Hilton get let out and then put back in a medical facility for "claustrophobia" yet they were going to drag this critically ill woman to jail? I'm glad I don't live in L.A. This goes beyond shameful.

I agree with you. They should close it down. Lock the doors. Let the Poor and uninsured people find a Hospital that will treat them better..
