Hospital Snafu


Would you believe that a California woman died at the hospital, two days after being hospitalized, and no one contacted the family? I find this strange because the hospital had her medical records and emergency contact information.

It appears that the family searched for the woman for more than a year, including contacting the hospital numerous times. The news report indicates that the hospital transferred her body to the morgue the day after her passing, and later to a cold storage facility while the family was looking for her. The body remained there forgotten for an entire year. In addition, the hospital didn't file a death certificate until a year later. 

It looks like someone is going to get sued.
