Man found dead after 34-hour wait in Winnipeg ER

This article is about how a man was found dead in an emergency room while waiting for 34 hours to be treated. The 45 year old man was found dead in the waiting area. It seems that he was never assessed by a triage nurse and was not registered as a patient seeking medical care. The man was never processed by the triage desk and therefore was not determined weather or not he needed immediate help or if he could wait.

I cant believe that a man could sit in the emergency waiting room for 34 hours and not get assessed by a nurse of doctor and end up dieing. This makes the hospital look terrible. Hopefully nothing like this ever happens again because this is just unacceptable.
