Thanks but I would rather die in this parking lot
Im assuming a lot of people don’t wanna go cuz it’s expensive asf
look the woman who is driving the ambulance i think she is like psycho look her face scary and tatto on hand 😀
“Our heart rate is up “ girl it’s my body and my choice. Sometimes people just want to go because they don’t like the aura
Why did she say "after I had the baby" instead of saying "after I had my baby"? It's odd when a mother doesn't refer to their child as their baby.
"her heartrate is150 which is super super fast"
What? How is that high?
Maybe just respect her wishes
There much better then California one you can’t force people to go the hospital if they don’t. Want to go if there over 18
this is heartbreaking, as an Australian this would NOT happen. Free healthcare, tax those who can be taxed to take care of the population appropriately for rfucks sake it's not rocket science.
What does she haveand and tomorrow morning there was never seen anything that would help the goats and tomorrow night for them and tomorrow Tommy youtalking you miss the weekend 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘is and then really ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂ😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😘😘😘😘😘
If that was me I would be like “ok sign this refusal have a nice dayâ€ÂÂ
A medical expert should have the same rights the police have, but apparently they don't.
I have epilepsy and I totally understand why she doesn’t wanna spend $1500 on and ambulance ride, plus whatever the hospital is gonna charge. They acted like a couple used car salespeople the way they were trying to push the ambulance ride, I know I’ve been there. If I managed to be that lucid I would have told that EMT with the attitude to go f-ck herself rudely. I don’t need anyone telling me about seizures or lecturing about their consequences. I know more about them then she ever will. After she leaves then it’s a big joke too. Oh this can lower the threshold and that can lower the threshold as they’re smirking and joking about pinky promises… it’s not a joke to us, glad it’s a joke to you two.
In a way they are forced her to go to hospital jus so they can get paid
If I went to the hospital everytime I had a seizure and I have Gran Mal seizures I would be going a lot…… I take my medication and do all I can to prevent them but they still happen…. but if my heart rate was still that high I would absolutely go….. if her boyfriend was in the other ambulance and was beaten badly bc she had his blood on her and she answered every question but that one she might have had something to do with it and that is why she didn't want to go to the hospital….. why would she not answer that 1 question but answered the rest….. she should have been detained….. her seizure started while being asked questions by the Police Officers and she probably got nervous and upset and that brought her seizure on! Just saying not 100% sure but from having epilepsy since childhood that seems like a plausible idea
When you're used to having seizures it freaks people out that you won't go to the hospital but when you go there's not much they can do for you, so you're hoping to just go home to bed.
Patient doesn't want to deal with police. There's more to the story re boyfriend's fight…
4:23 let's go get some ice cream before every thing closes
the number of times she said her heart rate is elevated is a joke
The music during the IV being placed… XD
What was her heart rate? They never talked about it 🙁
The emt keeps saying “okay†lmaooo
She feeling a sleep she is tried so quiet she not talking maybe she have a seizure she did not take her pill for her seizure every hour day need to put a hospital gown put her clothes in the bags day need to keep her overnight in the hospital the will watch her overnight in the hospital
I would have gone
Trying to avoid being in debt and getting a heart attack when she gets the statement. That’s why she doesn’t want to go to the hospital. Lol
GOD FOR BED IF ANYTHING WOULD HAPPEN RIGHT AFTER THE EMS LEFT. SHAME
She knows how much it would cost her , healthcare system sucks
It’s because the bill
Sure she’s not looking good but she isn’t stupid to put herself in debt with a 3 thousand dollar ride to the hospital
2:01 & 2:13 they used the exact same voice line and footage..
i hope she skra
I wouldn't want to go because the ambulance ride will cost $2000 WITH insurance! It's disgusting!
That’s awesome that the partners are so friendly.
I wonder if theyve ever had a patient with POTS and how high HR was
I heard the police started having a seizure. Tell me that ain’t so
In April 2017 I had a seizure and called 911 because the person thought it was smart to hand me a phone minutes later and they told me I hadn't had a one… Smh. I fractured my left hip that was replaced in 2014 so I'm quite sure I had one. When they finally came they put the stretcher in the street knowing my hip was fractured! My brother had to carry me to it.
She probaly had a seizure after the baby when she saw the bill of the baby
Can someone tell me why all my ads are the exact fkn same
Mentira
I had uncontrolled seizures for a while in my 20s. We knew I was gonna seize again, if not then, later. Happened all the time. My doc said there was really NO point going to the hospital unless it was new/different. They’d give me fluids, IV Keppra (doesn’t help me), and I’d lie around the ER for a few hours. In my area EMS doesn’t bill insurance so the cost is huge. She’s pretty alert and oriented by the end, knows her history.
She she have been taking her meds though, especially with a baby – what if she collapsed holding it?! Different if they couldn’t get the cocktail right…and drinking?! I don’t understand that kind of behavior, but I know it happens.
Got into a minor car accident and rode in the ambulance to the hospital. The ambulance ride alone, costs a grand.
Dang. If life threatening they should be able to make them go or something. That's crazy.
Mine goes above 200
all the comments saying she didnt want to pay $2000 for the ambulance ride but the real deal is she doesnt want to pay $2000 to hear "her heart rate is really elevated" a bunch of times
Baker act!
GO TO THE HOSPITAL
My friend has epilepsy but I’ve never seen her have a seizure and I don’t think I want to, I feel really sorry for people that have seizures, they will have epilepsy for the rest of their life 😞
She was like yet nah man y’all gon charge me an arm and a 🦵
