I was not present, of course, when this happened. The family was advised that "his airway was lost" and then they flew him to Vanderbilt where a trachea tube was put in for breathing. They had let him go without oxygen to the brain for over 7-8 minutes which killed him clinically. Then the family had to watch him slowly die. My question would be: 'Why is this facility not trained to handle emergency incidents such as this if they are going to be performing procedures at this facility?'
I went to 5 psych places b4 I finally checked myself into RV hospital. None of them helped at all. I spent Christmas & New years with the staff & patients. I was treated very well, one of the clerks that was in charge of snacks was a Nazi, but other than that I was cured of depression and my repressed hostility from being serially and physically abused as a child. I highly recommend this place for any psychological issues you may be having
Pretty good hospital. They are better than they use to be. My biggest problem is the billing department.
We know there is a risk with Any surgery but one has to ask when it is a procedure gone awry.
I am not pleased with this facility. My brother went in for a procedure to insert a feeding tube and is now dead.
