can we talk here, please people when you or someone else calls 911 cause you are drunk out of your head and bring you to hospital you cannot just leave. we have had several incidents of patients coming to hospital drunk out of their heads blood alcohol levels that would have killed an elephant and they want to leave. not going to happen. once you hit that ER you are under the care of the ER  doc and if admitted to floor, my responsibility cant let you leave even if you want to. if you persist, and try to leave guards get called and we will forcibly restrain you. we have a LEGAL duty to do that. you have two options in this situation. don't come to the ER or just stay till your alcohol level is good and you can leave.  people think they can come and go as they please. if you have insurance usually the insurance will not pay if you leave against medical advice. if you are lucky and have medicaid you don't have to pay. nice for the taxpayers of the state. thats another fiasco for another time. we didn't come get you, someone anyone had to call 911 or drop you off or you came on your own to the hospital. just don't come stay home. once you are in the hospital you are ours. we have a LEGAL  duty and be held responsible if you leave drunk and say get hit by a car, fall and really hurt yourself, etc. just don't come. and don't act stupid throwing things, hitting your fists against the wall making threats. call your lawyer i don't care you drunk not me. hehe
