Yes but it is an extremely difficult process to ban a person from an ER
ok, then admit him and park his sorry arse in a place where he wont get treated for...a few days.

The OLOL emergency room gets most of the EKL patients now.
This is why I don’t go to OLOL anymore. I pay too much for my health insurance to go to a charity hospital.
BR General is where it’s at.

I can only imagine how the ER docs felt when they got the news that they were now the de facto charity hospital for BR. That had to be a punch in the gut. Suddenly, you went to school for 15 years to be work at the bus station, but with gunshot wounds and stabbing and screaming low class families. That would be hell to work 12 hour shifts at 5 days a week.

I'd rather work the overnight shift at the drunk tank than work ER

It's like BR General took one look at the situation with Da Erl closing and decided "frick that" was the correct course of action when they closed their mid-city ER.

"more resources to preventing violence before it occurs, "
Unlimited resources are needed for something that can't be described and has never worked.

I deal with pts trying to punch me weekly

It’s not that different from other big ER’s. Most of the patients need help and are thankful. Then you have a few douche bags like this guy. I need to find out which doc it was

I was a friend of Lynne in high school and college, so her death is more to me than just a name in the newspaper. But regardlesss of how tragic her death was, it wasn't like some hood rat killed her on the street. She was assaulted in a mental ward by a repeat customer. As much as I'd like the guy to get a life sentence, he is mentally ill. The reality is that a manslaughter conviction is going to be hard to get.
It's a shitty deal for the Truxillo and the Sausse families, but it's the reality of the situation.

The real fault lies in our government deciding to “treat” the mentally ill through the ER and prison systems instead of standalone mental and psychiatric hospitals like the old days. In the name of cost-cutting, we’ve integrated the mentally ill and the dangers attendant to them back into mainstream society.

So, the hospitals and doctors lobby hard for the government money - lay in the bed you made.

EBR voters passed a tax for a stand alone mental health facility last year.

We actually had an incident in residency where a patient started punching an ER doc. The doc fought back and basically knocked him out. The doc was fired.
