Last year, went into the ER at around 6, waited an hour to get admitted (which is fine, I understand it takes a while with COVID regulations and all that). Once I was admitted they kind of forgot about me, they didn't come to take my vitals until 2 hours after I had gotten into a room. They stuck my arm to insert an IV and I bled onto the bed and on my clothes (that's fine, I guess my veins are just like that haha) and they said they'd be back to help clean me up. Then I just sat there for an hour trying not to sit in the little puddle that had accumulated. I would've tried flagging someone down, but I was at the very end of the hallway so no one ever walked down to my room unless they remembered I was there. Later on they had to take an EKG, the nurse stuck half of the electrodes and wires on and left. 30 minutes later an EMT happened to walk by and finished putting them on and then told another EMT to take over and finish the EKG. This isn't even everything that went wrong. I loved the EMTs, and save for one nurse, ER nurses were clearly not very happy to be working that night. EMTs did most of the work.
