Brought my wife into the ED today with a chronic degenerative brain disease, after she was released from her long-term care center, at medi-cals instructions. The Chief RN of the ED tried to release her stating there's nothing they can do Even though her condition had worsened, this came just 2 hours after they said they needed to admit her for more work ups. So we refused discharge because she would be at risk of falling and injuring herself when I went to work. She needed to be admitted to another long term care center and the only way to do that would be to have her admitted and the referral sent to medi-cals. The ED chief then tries to have security forcefully remove her I had to call LAPD who informed them that what they were trying to do was illegal and that we were not breaking any laws by refusing discharge. We had asked for a Sgt to come and as we were waiting the ED doc came in again with the security guards when the officers stepped away and said that LAPD instructed them that we were trespassing. This is after they told us we were not and that a Sgt was on his way.

Since she's been admitted the doctors have fought me at every turn to get the various specialties to come see her that normally would round on someone with my wife's condition. All the staff coming in and out of the hospital never have smiles on their faces and when greeted you're met with side glances and indifference. There is no affect here or compassion this is by far one of the worst faith centered hospitals I've had the displeasure of bringing my wife to.
