Dear patients- THIS IS NOT
- A MCDONALDS, or JIFFY LUBE. No , 1 or 2 ED docs can't stop and run and speak to you during a trauma alert. You don't get to "have it your way" and demand a med not approved by the FDA. 1

The ICU nurse is not a bad nurse if they can't take your call. Patients lives usurp your call. So you came to the ED 2 hours ago? Sorry rescue goes back before you. The sickest patients first 2
No you don't get to- spit, yell at, hit, or threaten staff. Yes if your family does this, they can be removed or arrested. No we do not have food 24/7 for you and your family. No you can't visit for an hour in ICU. 3
No ,not every hospital has an ECMO, nor do they need them.
Yes you have to wait on a list for one during a pandemic. Yes the ED's loud and ATC, that's
what happens with ICU HOLDS. No we don't have an ICU bed. 4

No the cafeterias not open at 2 am. No the Pizza out there is not for patients or family. It's our first meal in 10 hours. Sorry the guy in the hall is loud. No we can't move him we have no space. 5
Yes it your life and your body.
Yes well talk to the doctor
Here's your AMA slip sign here.
Yes you are allowed to leave now.
