My husband went to the ER last night at the suggestion of his primary physician. He has been experiencing chronic pain for over a year and recently developed muscle weakness and numbness. We live in Jackson, and have not been able to get help and so we tried the most recommended health system in the State. What a joke. He could not walk, and no family was allowed in to be with him. He sat in a wheelchair for HOURS while they moved him between tests and the waiting room. They finally got him in an exam room and sent the family member waiting in their car home because they were considering admitting him. Then at 4a.m. they told him he wouldn't be admitted and needed to call someone to pick him him up, because they wanted him to follow up with outpatient specialists. He still couldn't walk, he was in horrible pain, and had not gotten any sleep. Also, in the 12+ hours he was there, they gave him no water or IV fluids, despite his blood tests indicating dehydration- no food either. At 6a.m., they put him back in a wheelchair and put him OUTSIDE the building in the cold with no coat. We had family on the way to pick him up, but they wouldn't wait. Never have I seen such appalling care from any hospital, much less one who claims such status in the healthcare industry.
