1) Woman has surgery on her elbows. She goes to Carlos nurses line for wound care. The so-called “nurse” told that patient, “I don’t see anything here from the surgeon for wound care, so I’m not touching you, giving you gauze, ointment, or anything else.” That elderly lady went back to her bay and cried her eyes out. Fellow inmates to the rescue! Her friends gathered gauze, bandages, antibiotic ointment, and cleaned her bloody wounds themselves. The surgeon did prescribe antibiotics, but No-Care Naphcare is famous for not giving post surgery antibiotics, so of course she developed an infection. Two weeks later when the surgeon saw her he was “appalled” that his patient had not received basic care. As of this writing, she is still infected, and has oozing sores.
2) 65 year old slips and falls in the kitchen, and both male officers refuse to call an ICS even though she can’t move and is holding her knee in pain. Three inmates pick her up and carry her back to Bravo bay. Her knee is now the size of a basketball. Reluctantly, the bay officer takes the lady to medical. Carlos medical doesn’t give her a wheelchair, ice, food lay-in tray, or pain pills. They tell her she’ll go in for X-rays in “a few days”. Five days later the swelling has not gone down, she can’t put weight on that leg, so they magnanimously give her crutches to hobble on. EIGHT DAYS from her fall the 65 year old goes to X-Ray and a horrified technician calls Carlos with the result….the elderly lady BROKE HER KNEECAP IN HALF! This news finally gets her to a hospital for much delayed surgery.
What fiends work there????
