(37,573 posts)just reading a story which says
"For 18 minutes she lay propped against the police cruiser as the officer and nurses made multiple attempts to get her into the car. The nurses also checked her pulse. Not until a doctor came out was she readmitted.
Get her on the stretcher. This is totally different from what I discharged her for, the doctor says on the recording.
The Blountstown police officer who arrested Dawson is heard saying that he thought Dawson was being non-compliant by not trying to get in my car and faking it.
When Dawson was brought back into the emergency room, one of the nurses is heard saying, Ive never seen Barbara down like this."
From that it sounds like there were nurses - plural, you know, health care professionals with far more training than a cop. THEY were not calling for a doctor, so why should he?
From that last quote, with a nurse saying "I've never seen FIRST NAME ..." Says to me "I have seen Barbara a lot." Or at least a fair amount.
Now if it was the aunt talking earlier, then this article reported it wrong.
