I heard a definition once: happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented. because it's very true. It's health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. We all know that without health life is not life that's why maslow put it first in his pyramyde. In the article " the women died in the waiting room:published in Newsweek, July 12, 2008, the author Jeneen Interlandi tells us a little story about an old woman who died in the waiting room of Brooklyn's largest pyshiatric. this woman went to the hospital when she felt pain in her legs. she thaught she will be fine if she's around medical staff numbers. However this women didn't get what she expected. She stayed in the waiting room and waiting for help, but no body bothered their selves to check her. By the time the nurse tried to kick her, the woman was already dead nearly 40min ago!
According to the article, Interlandi states: "they are the poor, the uninsured and the undocumented. Many of them suffer from chronic conditions that could potentially be treated with medication and regular counseling, luxuries most of them cannot afford:. I strongly agree that when a country forceful effort to reach a goal or objective without thinking about its poor people, we can expect anything in that country.. But the problem is who will care about these poor and uninsured people who the public hospitals locked them away in cold without offering them a place in society.
How comes the country offers 50.000 inpatient psychiatric beds for tens of millions of people?! I think the U.S should better review its strategies and care more about poor people who ara not asking much. They just need a secure sociatey so they feel secured and there is someone thinks and cares about them. Many people don't have money to pay doctors consultation if they have pain. In this case who should care and offer the help, it's the government of course because people have good incomes and have their insurances won't think about others/
Also, we need very good helpful people in our hospitals. We really need professional medical stuff members who offer help and good services that we need and expect from them. This little story was an example of uncare and ignorance that poor, uninsured, and undocumented getting every day.
The woman who dies in the waiting room was sitting under the watchful eye of a security camera that causes this story to be known over the country and by many people. But we have to be aware that maybe these things happen everyday and none of us discovered.
