2 /5 Ronnie Padmore: Night and Day...the same in theory but 2 separate experiences altogether. For example, the hospital stay experience. During the day the patient is bombarded with numerous doctors, nurses, tests, X-rays, needles, you name it. At night, its like a ghost town. Patients are left unattended, ignored by the night staff. You can press the nurse call button a thousand times and no one will respond. Nighttime hours are critical and the same attention administered during the day should be given in the overnight hours. Those are the critical hours when things can take a dramatic turn, for better or worse. It leads one to wonder if things are this way because the staff is under the assumption that the bosses are at home sleeping? The same level of care should be given 24/7.
