CATW Practice 2

In the article,"The woman who died in the waiting room", by Jensen Interlandi, it talks about a woman named Esmin Green that fell out of her chair in a Brooklyn Psychiatric hospital before anyone found out that there was something wrong with her. This is upsetting since staff members and security guards passed through the room without even helping or caring for her, irresponsibly How irresponsible this is for hospital workers can be shown during this essay.

As much as workers in hospitals help and care for their many patients, Esmin's death could.ve been stopped if there was a caretaker with her. Even her own relative. Public hospitals have helped millions of uninsured mentally ill patients and still are busy with others but this is no excuse for not helping her. Staff members and doctors are held responsible for this. For example, when my Grandmas sick in Ecuador and no ones there to help her, my mom or aunts would take off from work and go there to help her since they're her daughters . Since she has no one else to be with. They're held responsible for helping each other out no matter what the cost.

Another reason why staff members and doctors are still held responsible for Esmin's death is because it's unfair for her to not have been seen by any doctor for anything since she was waiting to be seen. For example, every time my dad waits to be seen when he is at the doctor, the staff always makes sure the patients are seen. Since its their job. Everyone should be held for everything no matter what.

During my essay, i have shown that Esmin Green in the article, "The woman who died in the waiting room", by Jensen Interlandi, was uncared for unfairly and irresponsibly in the Brooklyn Psychiatric hospital while she off her chair and died in the waiting room.
