    [RC] Mt. Carmel ER story/endurance is not for snivelers - beth glover


    Gee lets get the violins out. The hospital staff didn't want to play endurance ride. That girl was obviously incredibly rude, and thought it was really funny that she was that way.  She clearly didn't know that what the hospital staff was doing was entirely appropriate. Hell, I woulda started the IV in her foot. We do that too, when someone has damaged upper extremities.  Why would "Nurse Rachett" be so slow in giving a pain shot? Well maybe Dr. Stupid was evaluating her neurological status? Sometimes when people have head injuries (like the kind that require many stitches in the face), they don't get pain medicine until a full neurological exam is done. That's what Doctors do. Nurses don't give the narcotics until the Doc agrees it's okay. Good thing the sniveler wasn't running her own care.  I think that girl got better than what she deserved.   Beth
