Mom: Hospital To Blame For Son’s Suicide

hi

.... to be perfectly honest I am not surprised . ...Northside it's not a good hospital except if you need to deliver baby. I was new to Atlanta and I already work for the Emory when one day I got a phone call from director of ER . I am not sure how she got my phone number , but I assumed from some medical website where I posted my resume .

Anyway , I was working part time for Emory doing my own schedule . I was not familiar with Northside ... this lady want me to come work for her ....I thought about it for a couple days and then I said why not maybe it will be a new experience . I agreed to work PRN ( when need it ) as I said just to see . I lasted six weeks which included two weeks notice . They couldn't handle anything . ER people must have basic things such as IV team .They couldn't handle code ( Dr. 99) , I witnessed 17 yr old boy die and I knew there was more that could been done for him , but I was not a doctor to giving orders , neither I had power to override his orders . I simply had to go .

In addition , at Emory I am out without any harassment , but at Northside you couldn't say word gay much less to be one .
