Yeah, here in chehalis, the ER is a joke. You can come in on the verge of death, and look forward to AT LEAST a 5 hour wait in the lobby. Plus most of the staff are rude for seemingly no reason at all. Worst hospital I've ever been to.

They are rude because they are overworked and traumatized from working in a system that values money over patients. They see multiple deaths a week. People that see their children die in front of them and instead of grieving have to worry about how this will bankrupt them. Violent patients that abuse them day in and day out. How would that affect you and how you treat people?

I’m not saying it’s ok, I’m saying there are reasons why ER nursing staff are emotionally burnt out.

In my post history is my life story. I've been through hell for 30 years of my life. I'm not a prick to anyone. I don't disrespect people or judge them off talking to them for 2 minutes. I agree, that medical care is all about money over health and wellness. That doesn't give anyone the right to take it out on me though.
