ER trip again
Well I was in the ER again last night but with Maura. She started puking at Nanny's house on Friday so we all figured it the bug that is going around. She started puking very bad again last night and then she starts screeming my chest hurts. For all who know Maurs this is not her to complain. So off to the local ER we went. A little advice to all please don't bring your kid there. The service is horrible we were put into a room and were there for over an hour and no one had even taken her vitals, mind you she had a temp when the nurse in triage took it three hours before. I was a little PO and asked a nurse who is Maura's nurse that this was unreasonable that her vitals had not even been taken. Wouldn't you know a doctor comes right in it pays sometimes to open your mouth. By this time Mauras temp is at 102.9. They don't do xrays,blood work or even a urine test on her. He looks in her ears and throat and says they are not red no infection its just her face that is swollen and she probably has an infected gland. So the gve her meds to settle her tummy and then come back with antibotics 900mg of augmentin but yet they insist she is not that sick. Thantfully she keeps everything down and they send us home. If she needed to get an IV they would have to keep her but they didn't have any beds upstairs so she would have to be shipped to the north annex. So if your child is sick please do not bring them to the hospital up the street from us the service is horrible.
