Dr. Colleen Schmidt had POOR bedside manners--HOLLERED AT SR. CITIZEN PATIENT- THAT WAS A "FALL RISK" to get out of bed plus do NOT ask for PAIN MEDS--with patient wearing FALL RISK BRACELET and AT THE "MERCY" OF THE MEDICAL STAFF--FOR ALL THEIR NEEDS AND TREATMENT. Also, DISMISSED patient when their POTASSIUM LEVEL was LOW--and in the MIDDLE of administering the LIQUID potassium thru an I.V. while IN THE I.V. CONNECTION...and with patient having a "PARTIAL BOWELL BLOCKAGE" and a Small Bowell Illeus plus PATIENT HAD "LOOSE STOOL" unable to get home BEFORE having stool in their clothing. POOR DECISIONS WERE MADE PERTAINING TO PATIENT "possibly" ---BY DR. COLLEEN SCHMIDT AND ANOTHER DR. on duty with in GALEN GROUP Chattanooga, Tn. that "appeared may have"-- "possibly" or ORDERED and PERMITTED THE SAME PATIENT TO BE PLACED ON NPO--ICE CHIPS ONLY--CAUSING DEHYDRATION UNTIL FAMILY MEMBER HAD TO INSIST THAT HEAD NURSE CALL DR. TO ASK FOR I.V. FLUIDS TO BE PUT ON THE PATIENT'S I.V. CONNECTION-THUS THIS CREATED MORE SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS--LOW BLOOD PRESSURE--UNDER THE 90/60 RANGE--AND THE PATIENT HAD DIFFICULTY BREATHING---PLUS MORE serious health troubles that still are affecting Patient at Home due to these POSSIBLE TYPES OF TREATMENT ...WE "THOUGHT" THESE PHYSICIANS WERE POSSIBLY NOT USING GOOD DECISIONS OF TREATMENT= THAT IF "FAMILY MEMBER" WERE UNAVAILABLE---THE PATIENT MAY HAVE HAD LOSS OF LIFE OR GONE INTO COMA--STROKE . PLEASE HAVE AN "ADVOCATE" OR LOVED ONE FULL TIME--"IF" YOU USE THESE PHYSICIANS...after we believe the "POSSIBLE DANGER" we have had concerns ETC....And now the MAIN M.D. IN THE GALEN GROUP--(that was on FAMILY LEAVE) we used for many years & was good Dr. has ONLY took his ASSOCIATES side and NOT considered the FACTS told by the PATIENT and FAMILY so POSSIBLY patient etc. is LEFT WITH SERIOUS GASTRO HEALTH TO SEARCH FOR "NEW PHYSICIANS"-- Thanks
