I was accepted in ER at 11:00 PM on Thursday in semi-conscious condition, and was placed in the corridor. My husband was at my side, trying not to fall asleep, as he worked all day (9 hours) at construction site. Nurse was passing by every hour or so, saying that doctor will see me soon. HE NEVER DID! After about 3 hours of waiting , nurse said, that doctor is attending a patient who is in a very grave condition, and please wait another half an hour. After ANOTHER 1,5 hour we decided to leave, as I felt a bit better.
At registration desk we saw Dr. Pakijavan just running to another patient. He never even looked into my direction.
So, if you are alone and lying somewhere in the corridor , unconscious,
I don't think you have any chance - you can pass out - they will never notice; and there always be someone in more serious condition to attend to.
I gave 2 stars: because two paramedics who brought me in did their job excellently - did all tests and gave me IV support (1.5 star);
and 0.5 star to registration desk: they properly wrote down my insurance number and nurse properly REGISTERED me in her journal, took tests and DISASSEMBLED IV. She refused however to give me copies of my tests.
Their parking lot has a great business, without any effort at all - most expensive, especially at night hours, and no person to help to get receipt.
So decide yourself whether to go to that hospital in case of emergency or not.
