You’re not, and it does happen everywhere. Same for employees of the hospital. If you work there and you’re waiting for a cat scan and you know the tech you just call them and tell them you’re a patient and you’ll be next AFTER someone who is actively dying/having a stroke. This really isn’t news.

Over someone who is actively dying or having a stroke? Is this a fact? Is this something you’ve seen happen? If so, which hospital? I’m genuinely curious and concerned.

Can’t say I’m surprised, call it a work benefit 🤷‍♂️
