Absolutely heartbreaking. 25 hours?? That’s not a wait, that’s a death sentence.
yeah nah I call bullshit on the whole 'walked out' thing. No way anyone waits 25 hours without checking in. Something else happened.
same energy as blaming the patient for dying lolol classic
would you know? She was in distress and nobody helped her. Get stuffed with your victim blaming.
I work in healthcare. This is exactly what happens when you underfund the system for years and expect nurses to magic up beds. Ffs.
we’ve been saying this for years but no one listens till someone croaks.

Palmerston North Hospital is a bloody joke. My nan waited 18 hours last month for a broken hip. This government should be ashamed.
tbh I’m not surprised anymore. The whole system is collapsing and nobody cares until someone dies.
Bet they’ll blame the staff like always. Classic deflect and deny. RIP Briar, you deserved better.
Preach. And they always throw a review at it. Review ain't a cure, cheers.
she was 40 … that’s terrifying. This could be any of us.
