The last entry could have been the outcome for a lady who visited the Lawrence County Hospital . Lawrenceburg ER could find nothing wrong with the patient. She was released. Within 12 hours another ambulance was called to her home. This time, the woman was sent to a neighboring Regional hospital. The second Regional Hospital ER staff admitted the woman and saved her life . The Lawrence County Hospital should have kept her overnight and not dismissed her. I ask that you research this incident, if you read this, and care for the lives of rural residents being transported to this hospital.

The Dr. didn't even enter the room,the nurse was friendly but one nurse sat and read a book.No one checked on me,asked if I needed anything no one acted like they even cared that they even were there.This Hospital is just not cutting it worst is they don't seem to care about their patients.Maybe having a few of them where I was at and let them see we all don't want pain meds we just need them to listen and show they care.maybe,wrapping a sprang or taking time to explain what was wrong and how to take care of things.A little time of showing they care will go a long way.
