Hello all,
My father is in the hospital in north FL due to post covid pneumonia. He feels fine, managed the covid and the fevers and all the symptoms at home, now just short of breath. Went to Hospital today, staff took X-ray and put him on oxygen. Also giving him steroids as the antibiotics didn’t work (viral pneumonia vs bacterial pneumonia)
We are obviously more worried about the fact that the hospitals are a for profit entity and possibly value the $60,000 covid death more than my fathers life. Although it is north Florida, which is mostly republicans...
As a precaution, and other than calling 24/7, what should we be doing to make sure the hospital is not playing around with my fathers life?
What have you (person in this situation) done when your loved one was in the hospital related to covid?
Prayers welcome
P.S. the good news is that he wasn’t admitted as a covid symptom patient rather it’s the pneumonia for the reason for being admitted... obviously due to Covid
My dad was hospitalized in Michigan for COVID. They took great care of him, but I called him multiple times per day asking what they were doing, what meds, etc. just to make sure nothing hinky was going on.
Thank you, I am doing the same... if they have time to make TikTok dance vids they have to to take extra care of my father
