Aug. 9, 2020 Horrible ER experience. Went in for bilateral rope burns on hands with skin hanging off and burns down 4-5 dermal layers with stated pain level 8/10. CNP was in the room for 30 seconds, then left because she could obviously care less. No orders written to administer meds STAT for his acute pain OR to remove hanging skin prior to bandages; just orders for regular bandaids, TAO, tetanus, and told to just go buy something OTC for his pain on our way home. Let me also mention that the RN we had (although very sweet), needs to go back to nursing school to relearn BASIC first aid....sheesh
When I got home, I immediately gave my son 2 Aleve!! I cut away all the torn hanging skin, washed both of my sons (whole) hands with antibacterial soap, applied TAO and bandaids/bandages that covered all of his wounds entirely and correctly. It s a good thing his mom is a GOOD nurse. I knew there was no reason to waste time going to this place on our way home from our river outing. I thought Soin would provide immediate care and relief from his injuries. Boy was I wrong.
I can imagine the bill will still be $5,000.
