I broke my knee. I was delivered to the ER via ambulance. The x-ray process was a nightmare ending up with a MRI. I was then sent home! Yes, it was broken but I was sent HOME! After being home of a couple hours the pain meds wore off so another ambulance trip back to the ER! I was then admitted. They are so short staffed on the hospital floors it is not funny. I never saw my own Dr. I had to deal with a rude, nasty intern. I was told by the intern you have 24 hours to figure out where you are going next but you cannot stay here. When I was helped by a 2 nurses to get into hubby's car, one of the nurses bumped into the back of my good knee collapsing me to the concrete on BOTH knees. They just stood there looking at each other, not offering me any help at all. A passer by came to help me back into the wheelchair. Immediately both nurses left. I have never been treated this way in any hospital anywhere! I will never go to their ER or hospital again. Any further help I need will come from the Med Center in Omaha where they have kind thoughtful staff.
