Six employees of Kings County Hospital Center have been fired or suspended after woman dies in ER waiting room in New York.
More facts surface. On June 18, Esmin Green, 49, was involuntarily admitted to the
psychiatric emergency department of Kings County Hospital Center on
June 18 for what the hospital describes as "agitation and psychosis."
According to the New York Civil Liberties Union those familiar with the hospitals condition have nicknamed it "Killer County".
Kings County Hospital Center is the subject of a lawsuit filed in May
2007 by the New York Civil Liberties Union, Mental Hygiene Legal
Service, and Kirkland & Ellis LLP. The lawsuit describes the
hospital’s psychiatric emergency room and inpatient unit as “a chamber
of filth, decay, indifference and danger,” and seeks an end to abusive
treatment in the hospital’s psychiatric facilities where patients are
regularly ignored and those that dare advocate for themselves are
punished with forcible injections of psychotropic drugs.
