If you went to the ER before. How long did it take you to wait for them to come out and help you? And what was your injury or what happened to you that you went to ER?
For me, it took me nearly 3 hours to wait for them. I had an anxiety attack that i fainted twice and had double visions...and had a huge headache that everything was spinning. I thought ER supposed to take 3 minutes... or less than 5 minutes... not wait in 3 hours?!?!?! |

real thing does make you wait that long.
it's an EMERGENCY room. some people have more URGENT emergencies. like, a cardiac failure. or bleeding profusely. that also being said, the ER is usually a far way away from the lab and radiology departments. an also; ERs are understaffed a bit. they have to get patient information entered in the comptuer and charts made out before the doctor can even consider your case. they should triage you almost immediatly, and then if they have a room and you need it, give that to you. |
