My 90 year old grandmother had a very nasty fall on the concrete garage floor that knocked her unconscious for at least 20 minutes. Her face was swollen and bleeding. She had severe pain along her left side. The ER took two CT scans, determined she had small brain bleeds and sent her home with a prescription for pain meds. They never took any x-rays. She couldn't even walk out. They had to wheel her out and put her in the car.
We took her to another hospital later where they determined she had three fractured ribs, a broken collar bone, and fractured cheek bone.
How do you not x-ray a 90 year old after a severe fall?
