In this episode of Medical Malpractice Insights: Learning from Lawsuits, we examine the heartbreaking case of a patient who waited over two hours in an emergency department waiting room—only to be found unresponsive and eventually declared dead. We break down what went woefully wrong, the critical failures in triage and patient monitoring, and how emergency departments can implement simple yet effective changes to prevent tragedies like this.  

Let’s talk about how we can do better.
