Why are some first aid/ER hospital types & police so unhelpful and rude, even when you're having a crisis?I had a rapid heartbeat/arrythmia episode which scared me, and I couldnt' walk far, so I went back to my car and called for help just to check me out, etc. The cops came first who acted very cocky and arrogant with me, and were more concerned about stupid bs than actually helping me and making me feel good. they also looked at me weird, like you could tell they didn't care and were total Aholes.
Then came more cops over to talk to me, and they gave me some oxygen, which immediately made me feel relaxed and calmer, but when they were talking with me they basically looked at me like they hated me or didn't like me, and same with the other cops. they looked a bit bitter, and just kinda like, they didn't want to deal with me for whatever reason. Whenever I asked them a quesstion, they would always answr with some smart witty or condescending remark too.
I asked them how long , like an estimate, would it take for the rescue squad people to come, and the guy goes "Look....they're volunteers...so they can take their dear old time."
That's not exactly something a person in panic wants to hear.
Why the attitude? Why the intentional not caring Ahole way of speaking to me? Why the rudeness?
At the hospital it was a bit more professional at least when you dealt with the actual doctors/nurses. but the registrar people were d9cks as well as the doorman, and some of the people in the waiting room just had to be so friggin evil, mean and rude.
I had an irregular heartbeat /arrythmia, and was just...out of breath couldnt walk...whatever...they pretty much even let me go and drive to the ER by myself! lol.
They just seemed so unhelpful and So uncaring, and even took their dear old time backing out of the parking spot which I was at, and to make matters worse, they beeped at me a few times just because I forgot to put my seatbelt on,,..like that was the most IMPORTANT THING! Let alone me having a possible heart attack or asthma attack or fainting or whatever.....which they didn't seem to give a hoot about, but my seatbelt,whwatever.
+ this was at a mall, and they basically like just joked around with each other like "hey mack what are u doing today after work?" "Oh forget work, lets go shopping!" they seemed like they were making fun of me, mocking me or whatever.
Did I deserve that? Or the attitude?
Also I was driving my commuter car, A cool sporty looking dodge, and they were like "They told me u said u were driving a dodge pick up truck, i was like i dint think they made those,,"" I was like> "yeah lol, maybe, I dunno but I definitely don't have one of those as you can tell lol." Tried to joke around and he just gave me a blank expression, like...he just didn't even want to deal with me, or even remotely engage in conversation.
What the F*Ck is wrong with people? Jes8s, for real.
I'm asking this in law & enforcement just because the police were involved and are often co-involved with first aid squads, paramdedics, etc,..especially in emergencies, thought I could get first hand on.....why the attitude problems?
It makes us...the victim or the person in help feel VERY uncomfortable.
It's not very professional. If those people don't like me for whatever their st-pid tr@shy reasons are, fine, but don't bring it to work. Can't they leave their baggage at home?
it's really irritating.
I even once had a tow guy for my car show up and just like totally not want to work with me and help me at all.
These blue collar or government workers or law enforcement people don't like me.
I'm mid-20, long blonde hair, rocker type, but I can also be clean cut and be the corporate type, and I'm gay/bi.
Maybe that's it but hey,
can't they leave their judgements at home?
It's RUDE!
it's almost like they wish you did d9e, im telling u , teh way they act.

honestly i don't know i wasn't there but try working in an emergency room and i think you will understand, it might sound cruel, but your eyes open up to alot of things that you never even thought of, i know it's not any concelation, but there it is

Wow, you're long winded. I can see by the length of your post that it was obviously very important to you. However, when you see it everyday, you become a bit detached. The officer attempting to make small talk with you got you to joke back with him about your vehicle. It was a cue to them that you were calm and probably a good indicator that your level of distress was quite low. That doesn't mean you don't need help, but you have to understand that it didn't appear life threatening and therefore the level of urgency that would have made you "feel better" was left out. Is this a reflection of "lack of professionalism?"... certainly. Is it a reflection of "lack of competence?" ... certainly not. You had a lot of people tending to you. You were dissatisfied with their "expressions" and small talk amongst themselves. I hate to tell you, because you obviously don't want to hear it, but you need to get over it. They provided you the help they were required to provide you. Maybe they acted like assholes because they were indeed assholes. I don't know. It really doesn't matter. They gave you the help you needed. It is very hard... VERY HARD to be a compassionate Mother Theresa with every one who requests your assistance day in and day out. Not what you want to hear, I know, but it's the honest truth. I assume that's why you came here.

Send a letter to the editor in that local newspaper. Also blog online. No one at the police dept is going to take you seriously. people have become very ugly and you are expected to accept it, well DON'T accept it. it doesn't matter at all what the EMT or police see in the course of their day, you are a civilian and your life was in their hands. next time call 911. however be warned, the same can happen with them as well..
