Yeah but how much longer will you have to wait now(assuming you are not considered a red trauma)?
not sure what a red trauma is or if BR has a trauma center anymore. My dad has a history of heart issues and he waited way too long one day at OLOL. The General on Bluebonnet is much better than the lake

Red trauma means you need immediate life-saving interventions.
Level 1 Trauma center is the highest level you can have in an hospital/ER. Quick google shows OLOL is only designated trauma center in BR...and it's a level 2(but looks like it's trying to obtain level 1 status).

That is again because OLOL is the only level 2 trauma center in the area....so their ER is gonna be more packed with people in need of a higher level of emergent care that Bluebonnet cannot give. That and I would imagine most everyone that used to go to mid city now goes to OLOL.

Do realize that its called an emergency room and not an issues room? If your dad would have had a true emergency he would have not had to wait at all, but since its just an issue, he had sit it the waiting room with all of the other issues.
