A 25-year-old Milwaukee woman went to the emergency room for chest pain, but after an hourslong wait to see a doctor, left and went to seek help at an urgent care center. Before she could get inside, she collapsed near her car and later died.
"How can you triage someone with shortness of breath and chest pain, and stick them in the lobby?" Ward's cousin, Andrea Ward, said to the outlet.In a second post, she said it was ridiculous that she had been waiting for hours although her symptoms were chest pains and shortness of breath.
According to the medical examiner's report, Ward left the emergency room at around 7:30 p.m. because she"felt she was waiting too long and decided to go to an Urgent Care." She had been in the emergency room for roughly two and a half hours when she decided to seek help elsewhere. She was rushed via ambulance back to Froedtert Hospital, where she was pronounced dead just before 11 p.m.
