St Francis Health Center Inc: "Waited 3 hrs 15” to get into room. Called back by nurse and she walked 30 ft in front of me even though I felt weak and passing out. I will see how the rest goes. Told me to get undressed and left nothing else. Not one caring gesture. I don’t want to be here either " - John
