    Exclamation Finally Released to Public HOSPITAL DEATH RATES

    Well in the past the government hasn't released actual #'s to the public on this only %'s. With the old lady being in the medical field and a couple in my family I have always been somewhat close to a hospital or two due to close family being employed there.

    Anyways they (government) have FINALLY released these actual #'s to the public. It was giving to USA Today on Tue. before releasing it yesterday to the general public. They have actually put together a few really nice features on there site to give you the ability to check your local hospitals out and compare the #'s for yourself.

    I think there is alot of DUMBASS FUCKING DR.'s out there that are CLUELESS and take guesses EVERYDAY and have killed MANY from those decisions so I will do ALL that I can to get this info out to those that don't know where NOT to go.





    In this interactive USA TODAY graphic, you'll find medicine's best-kept secret revealed: death rates for heart attack, heart failure and pneumonia for every hospital in the nation.

    Thanks for posting this!

    Although, I am not surprised. I've never had a decent ER experience. As a matter of fact ... I've left pissed off every time!

    Henry Mayo here. But, if it's a true emergency ... don't always have a choice. It's the only one within 'emergency' distance

    At least the liberals are trying to fix our health care system.

    Wow, good info! I'm going to send that link around.

    My dad has been in a hospital in Louisville, KY for the better part of 2 months now with diabetes, leg ulcers, congestive heart failure, kidney damage, and had 2 toes amputated last week. He probably won't get out for another month if at all. He's not doing well. He's worked hard all through my childhood and forsaken his own health over the years. It's caught up with him and I'm afraid it's too late. Makes me want to work less and live more.

    Tell them you are havong chest pain, that gets you through the door much faster. I work at a hospital, thats how you get back there at the front of the line as long as the others arent claiming the same thing, lol.
