K at Rose ER

Early this morning K said she had fallen off her scooter in the kitchen, sometime earlier. She had scrapes on her arms and a fist sized hard painful dark black and blue stomach bruise / hematoma on the left side. The caregiver has been trying all day to get her moving, so they can go to Rose ER and have it evaluated. It's looking like the caregiver will have to leave about the time I get home from work, and I will be taking her.

8:30pm update: We arrived at Rose ER a half hour ago. Q&A is done. The usual IV is in, and they've ordered some tests.

11:45pm update: The Dr says the CT shows the hematoma is superficial. Sending her home!

This was our 2nd visit to Rose Hospital ER. Some of the people did recognize us from last time. We think our experiences at Rose have been consistently better than other places. That's 2 for 2.
