Hmm. I kind of wonder about that. My hubby is an Academy grad, and so is our daughter and son in law. Anyway, you do swear an oath when you enter the Academy, so maybe that has something to do with being a military member. Interesting.
That's terrible. I've had on call jobs before. Do you know what I got paid to be available all day, meaning ready to get dressed and get to work within the hour of the call? $3/hr. Three dollars an hour, to be available on my day off. AND they can put you on call on the day of your assigned shift. So instead of getting your salary, you get put on call for $3/hr to wait by the phone. Burn the whole effing thing to the ground, the system doesn't work.
How's this? Infiltration and corruption of the healthcare system
If he could even get a bed. Where I used to work, there was a holding room for psych pts. Transitional Unit. They would sometimes be there for 72 hrs without treatment, waiting for discharges on the unit. It's a pretty screwed up system.
I worked psych for many years, and psych pts can be dangerous. However, one tiny blessing of a psych unit is that it is a locked unit, so no one will randomly enter the unit. I heard a podcast that all 3 of the pts were helpless, one intubated, one on Oncology and I don't know about the third. So sad.
hahaha
