Wondering if anyone has any information regarding these two facilities? What was your experience like working at either? I'm also in communication with New York Pres for a permanent position at the Allen Hospital in Inwood. Thanks!

I know it is a stressful time and it is crucial to seek help. But please be CAREFUL when reaching out to Cornell Health or Cayuga Medical Center.
Last week I called Cornell Health for help due to a post-assault trauma but they kept asking me COVID questions and later sent a MALE Cornell Police to look for me even though I repeatedly told them I was was safe and I was in a lecture. The male officer was so rude on the phone so I asked to speak to a woman.
A female police officer later helped me book a therapy session (two days from then) and asked me if I want “immediate help”, I thought it was a short walk-in therapy session that I could go home in 1 hr, so I agreed. But I was sent to Cayuga Medical Center.
At Cayuga Medical Center, they took away all my personal belongings (including my phone) and let a MALE nurse question me on details of my sexual assault. I asked to speak to a woman or have a woman presented. He and another female professional refused by saying that they didn't have enough staff and they didn’t understand why I was so upset. I asked to leave, call a friend, call a police, or call a lawyer, which they all refused. It was then that I was triggered and cried so loud that entire floor could hear so they finally assigned me a female nurse. They performed physical examination and mental evaluation on me, but didn't tell me that I won't get result till midnight and I might be hospitalized up to 15 days. When I was waiting, I was so hungry and lonely (no food, drink, phone, laptop, no one talked to me). I asked for help but nobody responded. I cried, and a female professional (who previously said she didn't understand why I was upset) came to say "we have other patients, can you stop screaming?" I said I was not screaming, I was just crying. She said "can you quiet down?"
At midnight, they told me that I need hospitalization. They refused me to call a lawyer or the police. I begged at least can I text a crisis manager so he could ask my professors for academic accommodation when I was hospitalized. The nurse: "oh so now you are comfortable talking to a man?" I didn't know what to say. The crisis manager happened to be a man and what I could do?
When I was hospitalized, they gave me a form to fill in what are my triggers. I wrote "men." And later they sent a male staff to check on me every 15 minutes. They didn't inform me their 15-minutes policy until the second time the staff opened my door and I said "it is kinda c
... keep reading on reddit ➡Family friends of ours are currently at Santa Clara Valley medical center. Their teenage son has been in a severe accident and is currently dealing with potential brain damage (seizures, jaw wired shut, medically induced coma.)
His parents have at best a rudimentary comprehension of English and speak primarily Vietnamese. They have not been offered translation services by the hospital and are getting scared and frustrated at their lack of comprehension regarding their sons ongoing care and their medical options. Decisions are being made without their understanding.
He is in a severe, life threatening situation. Their son is usually their translator, but is obviously of no use at the moment. Does anyone know of any services, non profits, community resources, or ANYTHING in the San Jose area that can help our friends get some assistance speaking with these doctors?
Thanks for any ANY help.
TMC continues to believe that data on positivity rate, vaccination rate, hospitalizations, etc. are important to supporting our community in managing its response to COVID-19. However, at this time, we are seeing limited changes over the course of a week and believe that week over week data reporting provides the necessary information to the community. We stand ready to restart daily reporting should the situation require it.
We want to thank our members for their commitment to transparency and public health; we recognize that collecting and reporting the data on a daily basis since the beginning of the pandemic has been a serious investment in our community.
So naglabas na yung St. Luke’s ng 2nd list of their accepted applicants and since wala pang nag post ng megathread about St. Luke’s, I’ll initiate.
To Lukans or people who have ideas about SLMCCM, please feel free to post information that could help individuals who aspire to enroll in this institution.
Comments about admission, curriculum, environment, student life, scholarships, and the school’s edge would be highly appreciated. Thank you so much po!
