Out With My Sis

.......In-Law. Well my day was kind of short and sporadic so I took my sister-in-law, Naomi and her man, Stephen to the hospital for Jay Lynne's appointment. It turn into a long visit because the office only had one nurse practitioner and they new saw the doctor. They only did a few vital checks and then after an hour they did blood work. That part of the day took 2.5 hours.

After that we took Stephen & Jay Lynne home and went to Human Resources to take care of some business with the insurance. It was only supposed to be an half an our, but it was another 2.5 hours spent there. The case worker was out on lunch and she told Naomi to just wait and when she returns she will immediately help her. In the meantime, folks would have to pick numbers to get help from the office. A hour later a woman in a snow cap appears and informs Naomi that she has to take a number. I was thinking "Bitch you best help her now." It was basically nothing she had to take care off. To cut the story short she finally got what she was looking for.

I wasn't pissed that we were out for so long, I was pissed because of the lousy service the medical & human resource staff provides. Communication is the huge problem. I understand some services are at the mercy at the state funding, but at least they can help the people better and take their anger out on the state.

It's just sad.
