"Two people have come forward to buttress the allegations of a pregnant Las Vegas woman and her fiance who have said that Valley Hospital emergency room staff refused to help them despite the woman's cries of agony.
Aaron Arrington, a 40-year-old hat designer, and Doris Patton, a friend who drove Arrington to Valley the evening of Nov. 30 for treatment of gastrointestinal problems, said they saw what played out between Valley staffers and Roshunda Abney, who previously had waited for care at University Medical Center for six hours before giving up and heading to Valley with her fiance, Raffinee Dewberry. "The woman was doubled over in pain holding onto the front desk," Arrington said Wednesday as he stood near the women's hats he makes in his home. "She was literally screaming and moaning about her stomach pain and looked like she was ready to hit the floor at any time. The man with her kept pleading, 'Please help us, please help us.' And the man at the counter ignored the woman's pain and just said, 'You have to fill out some paperwork.'' If these allegations are true, both hospitals could face substantial liability, especially when one considers that the child ultimately died. If you or someone you love has suffered because of the negligence of a medical facility, you need the help of Las Vegas personal injury lawyers with a long and successful track record of holding large operations accountable.
