The article "the woman who die in the waiting room" by Jeneen interlandi explains that here in the u.s are only a few psychiatric hospitals which many of them are careless with poor peole. The article also states that here in one the Brooklyn's psychiatric hospitals a woman died because of the staff uncaring act the woman died in the waiting room.
First of all, i agree with the article that that in the u.s there a bad service towards poor people.for instance, a woman died in Brooklyn' psychiatric hospital due to the staff members negligence who ignore the woman when she was having a stroke. These incidents are common in today's society. For example, I have a aunt who is mentally Ill, so when we take her to the hospital we have to wait for alone period of time to be attended. The members don't worry because when u go there and ask them why is it taking so long to the members to see my aunt and do something, they just say that we need to wait because the doctors are busy with others patients, but the true is that they are in the lunch room or talking in a meeting instead of working. I think that this is very unfair for people with low income since they have to wait until they almost die for doctors to see them.
Furthermore , the article states that there are not enoug beds for patients due to the few psychiatric hospitals in u.s for intense when a patient goes to the hospital he can't take be served because there is not space for them. The author is trying to say that it is not only about the staff members it is also the lack of humless in our nation.
In conclusion the article "the woman who died in the waiting room" talks about the negligence situation in which we live right now in psychiatric hospitals. The government should do something about this otherwise more people will die in these areas.
