After hours waiting for a bed, an elderly man with ischemia is found dead outside the emergency room

Unfortunately, today we want to tell you about a case of medical malpractice. The right to health is a fundamental right of themens internationally and nationally recognized. It implies the right of every individual to enjoy the highest possible level of physical and mental health, without discrimination of any kind.

This is what it should be, but in a world where everything just works reverse, treatment has become a right for a few and too often, due to lack of means or places available, people continue to die. Is it right to have to tell stories like this again in an era that should tell about well-being and progress?

Hours after the removal, the discovery of the body

This is the sad story of a man from 73 years of Sora, found dead outside theHoly Trinity Hospital of Sora. After waiting 48 hours a bed never assigned, the man leaves the emergency room to die alone near the administrative offices.

The 73-year-old had been transported by ambulance to the hospital as he had been hit by aischemia. This happened a Monday. Throughout the day, until Tuesday next, when the man called his wife to update her, he was waiting for a bed.

After 48 hours, now tired, he gave up and left the emergency room. When the doctors call his name and can't find him, they call his wife to find out if he has returned home. Unfortunately, however, no one knew that at that moment the man was already dead.

All that remains is to wait for theautopsy which will clarify the causes of death. In the meantime, the prosecutor's office will verify with it was possible that the man left and that the staff only noticed it after hours. The family presented a exposed to shed light on what happened and give justice to a human being, whose only fault was to fall ill in a historical era and in a moment in which the only hope is to pray to God to always stay in good health.
