your hospital emergency visit survival guide

Survived another ER visit and learned the hard way! Always carry multiple copies of medication lists (wallet, car, fridge) including ALL meds and allergies. Stick with one hospital system when possible. Know the difference: ER docs stabilize, hospitalists manage ongoing care. Be present during shift changes or have a dedicated advocate. Document everything and don't be afraid to repeat crucial information—shift changes create information gaps. Your persistence could save a life! #HospitalTips #EmergencyPreparedness #Caregiving
