Woman dies in ER lobby as 911 refuses to help
I caught this on the news last night and recalled my visit to the ER when I was in my car accident in February. I wasn't seriously injured so I took the bottom of the priority list, which was fine, but the waiting room had 3 people in it. I'm not sure what was going on behind the scenes, but after 4.5 hours I had finally been checked out and checked off.

"LOS ANGELES - A woman who lay bleeding on the emergency room floor of a troubled inner-city hospital died after 911 dispatchers refused to contact paramedics or an ambulance to take her to another facility, newly released tapes of the emergency calls reveal."
