pogal Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 went to a call a week ago with an elderly lady who had just had eye surgery in a very small clinic and then for some reason went into cardiac arrest, 1 doctor and 2 nurses stood there and did nothing until rescue workers arrived to start CPR! How and why she went into cardiac arrest will remain a mystery I guess and nothing will happen about it either way. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
