My mother was admitted with pneumonia and now has brain damage. They did not even contact the family when she apparently pulled her bi pap out and coded. We found out the next day when a man another patient answered her phone. How horrible is this. If they were short staff they should have let us stay. Now they cannot even tell us how long she was unresponsive before they found her. Why didn t they have alarm on the machine or did they just not answer. This has been a horrible experience.
