@cliff_notes: I thought I was getting a hospital update @adventhealth, but somehow ended up having to explain my complaint all over again. And a second hospital experience has made me look at the first one very differently. Apparently , we need to have a bigger conversation about patient advocacy and accountability. #adventhealth #advocacy #blackwomen #hospital #fyp

Ciara💐 :

Oh used to work there, I’m so sorry

user4224610991121 :

Theres not enough staff doe what you are asking

Angelina Smith :

it's insane they haven't resolved anything yet

Marie Louise :

whoa whoa whoa slow your roll you were dehydrated this time that doesn't mean you were the last time and fluids is a medication and can cause severe arrhythmias pulmonary edema so they don't just give it out willy-nilly

Diane Castro :

Your a doctor?

quinnqueen :

how does being new absolve somebody of the issue, you're telling me that your predecessor did not explain to you the process of dealing with complaints? seems like a lack of organization at best and contempt at best. as a frequent flyer to hospitals the majority of the time I get fluids even though it is not needed. I'm sorry for all you've been through and hope you get some clarity soon.

erinbriner :

It was sooo unacceptable to be treated that way.

This the bs I went through with my mom and Brookdale (the equivalent of where you went but in nyc) and the years I was going to the er feeling every cardiac event symptom for years. The constant anger and then them trying to silence you when you need help and are frightened and trying to keep calm but the BP just keeps rising. No one knows how to communicate. No one wants anything but an easy pass when A LIFE IS ON THE LINE. YOURE A HUMAN NOT A TASK TO CHECK OFF. I’m so so sorry love and I am rooting for full justice to come through for you. I know the pain and constant advocacy and follow up and retelling. May peace be with you strong. That ish hurts mentally, physically, everything.

Devorrelle :

"previously when I was in the hospital my child was not a problem , he sat with the nurses at the nurses desk, and was well looked after" this is exactly why doing someone a favor or showing kindness backfires on people. just because the last time you were in hospital, and your child was monitored and looked after by a nurse, doesn't mean that is their job. nurses are responsible for the patient not their children. They're not nannies. the nursing station or hospital ward isn't day care. it is STANDARD for hospitals ACROSS THE GLOBE to have a no children policy. it could also create a legal liability for the nurse and the hospital if they are looking after your child and something happens. if that child goes missing, if it gets hurt. so no. in no circumstances is a nurse technically supposed to look after your child. if anything they'll be risking their job if they do so. same with if they allow it on the ward with you. if something suddenly happens to you while the child is with you who looks after it afterwards? "I was dehydrated,they didn't even give me fluids, that is basic if you're admitted" it is not basic actually. you are an able bodied woman capable of putting fluids down your mouth. the hospital doesn't need to administer fluids unless it's necessitated by your condition. fluids can sometimes do more harm than good. was your blood pressure dropping low? were you bradychardic? at the original hospital. did you show signs of dehydration. dry mucous membranes, weakness etc? you are still alive. you didn't die. your chest pain clearly wasn't serious. the doctors clearly followed protocol and did what was appropriate in that moment.

Hot wheels :

Maybe hire a sitter or family to watch your kid. Especially if you’re routinely in the hospital. It’s not a good place for them to be in and legally a nurse isn’t suppose to watch your children. That’s not their job

hunter hues 🍉🏳️‍⚧️🇮🇪🇵🇱 :

These people wanna play in your face like you’re being the problem, meanwhile you LITERALLY have this experience as a standard for how to be treated humanely. They can’t gaslight you into thinking it’s normal when you’ve been treated by your competent medical team!!! I’m glad you have someone in your corner and that you know your worth and your standards!!!

JJ/Jasper and Kibou :

patient advocacy will never get back to you. their job is to cya the hospital. theyre horrible. they didn't help me even when a hospital snowed me out and I almost died, report them to the medical board they will actually follow up.

Bridget Murphy6655 :

Why do you speak like this. So intense

Victoria :

Why would they give you fluids? You’re perfectly well and able to drink looool.

yepitsmefosho :

Hospitals should be required to have 24 hour day care for children of patients!!! 💙💙💙

A child sitting at the nurses station and being babysat by staffing is a WILD CONCEPT 💀

Celestial Skies 🌌✨ :

I know a girl who was a nursing student in a Buffalo NY hospital and she would tell me about the racism in the ER and how the nurses would help white people but let POC be in pain and purposely label them as “dr** seeking”. She reported them but the higher ups didn’t do anything about it. She left nursing school and is now trying to get into politics to try and help change the system.

Regina Strong285 :

covering up what was done

Z_po :

Would you watch someone’s child while you’re working?
