My mother went to the ER Thursday night for high blood pressure, dizziness. She was not seen by a doctor but a nurse. She was released at a bp 200/95...I can't believe they didn't wait to bring it down. All she was told was to increase your hb medicines double dosage. This is my concern Northern Nevada, your medical staff character and skills portrays disqualifies your image as a genuine hospital. No compassion..to get her a EKG to check her heart for possible heart attack and stroke. Why would you release a patient without ensuring her bp is in a safe level? Assumption leads to law suit if ppl pursue it, if anything was to happen to my mother. Hire quality medical staff with quality character not just skills and education. Anyone can be educated and trained in any field but character takes a special type of discipline.
