Items 2 and 3 are very common. I saw item 2 happen more times than I can count for so many different reasons. Starving a patient for 3 days(no food allowed before scan) for an MRI that kept getting pushed back due to lack of equipment or techs was probably the worst.
Any time we were stuck in emergency for days becuase there were no available beds made me think, gee, I wonder what patient is waiting to go home and free up a bed, but can't for any number of reasons, most of which are due to lack of funding ending up costing more money.
Being stuffed in a makeshift room at the end of a hallway with partition walls was almost as pleasant as the time we were in mental ward, but better than being in the secure ED area(not becuase we needed it, it was the only space). Hi crazy lady, it's 3am, could ya knock it off for a couple hours please?
