    I suppose the director wants to show Chloe off as much as possible, but there she is in a coma lying in her sexy street clothes still covered in blood showing off leg as well.

    Now would a hospital not change her into a gown and tidy her up a bit, not just let her lie there in her blood and dirty clothes which could lead to infections from the cuts.

    Remind me never to visit Salem hospitals. People fight in the halls there all the time and the doctors are sometimes not prepared for any patients to come through.

    And these are the new writers in charge???

    My husband was watching with me today and I said the same thing to him. Who would leave a person in a coma obvviously needing an IV, in her street clothes? And when they said she had severe head trauma I burst out laughing since her hair and makeup and face were absolutely perfect. And I don’t remember Brady lifting her up and coming up with blood on his hands from the back of her head.

    When I worked in ER they didn’t even unbutton or unzip the clothes, they’d cut them off first thing.

    LOL, good thing Maggie was discharged or there wouldn’t have been a room available.  I think everyone in Salem has laid on that one hospital bed at one time or another.

    And the hospital must be located close to EVERYTHING because patients literally get carried in there rather than arriving in an ambulance.

    Regarding not cleaning up an injured patient, didn’t EJ have dried blood all over him for quite some time?

    They did have a second room a few years ago when Bo and Chelsea were patients at the same time.

    lax on these hosptial “details.” No way wouldn’t Chloe be cleaned up and in a gown by the time she was in a coma in her room.

    Maybe they were waiting for the police or someone to come in and collect some DNA samples. My bigger beef was that she had a head injury that put her in a coma and she didn’t even have a bruise on her face and she wasn’t bleeding from her head. Those are details I find even harder to overlook. Mandy was sitting up talking and crying to Dario and when she got to the hospital, she was nearly killed and had a bruise on her face. I’d like consistent injuries with what the drs. say is the damage. I’d more believe that Chloe had a broken leg given that she has injuries on her legs.

    on this subject…DOOL writers are using "drugs" they find at Salem Hosp. if they think this scene is even remotely in the realm of reality of what happens in a hospital when you have a serious injury.

     for the police to collect evidence?  She could have been dying, and no one was even looking in on her to see if she was in danger.  When Nicole came in at the end, she still wasn’t even hooked up to any machines, was she, or did I miss something?  And Brady, now is not the time for you to go all ape-like demanding information that you certainly haven’t bothered to gather until now.  You haven’t even spent time with Chloe to know what she was going through, but she was supposed to ‘come to you.’  Give it a rest.  You are so far over the top with me, it’s pathetic.

    The ER staff can remove clothing and start working on the patient/victim BEFORE the police arrive.  They bag the clothes and at least stabalize the patient.  I’ve been involved when there were gun shot victims and we had their chest cut open with our hands inside doing manual cardiac massage before the police arrive.   I know cleaning the patient up as far as removing blood and dirt is the last thing on their minds and that does wait until they’re ready to go to a regular room or even before family is allowed in to see them.  They even leave minor wounds, and scrapes alone and focus on the real emergency.

    because they need to attend to her injuries first but, the first thing they do when you come in (if the EMTs haven’t already done it) is cut their clothes off and start an IV.  How can they give her any medications without an IV?  When I went in the ambulance I had the IV in my arm before I even left the house.

    Plus, they NEVER have the railings up on those beds.  You would NEVER leave a patient in the ER without rails, especially one in a coma.  Falling out of that bed would constitute a MAJOR law suit.  They won’t even put them down if you ask them to.  I know, I’ve tried more than once.

    I don’t know why they can’t pay just a wee bit of attention to these medical nits.  Surely everybody has been in an ER and knows what goes on there and it’s not like it’ll cost them anything to do so.  Maybe they do it on purpose to give us something to gripe about…ya think?

    nobody cared. They just had Brady dump her and that was it.

    She did have a cut on her right forehead, right at the hairline.  But, she couldn’t have been hit in the back of the head too where we wouldn’t have seen it, however, head wounds usually bleed profusely and there’d be much more blood that they showed.

    I have to give the make-up department props though because I think their bruses, etc. look very real.  All they have to do now is find a way to make the blood turn brown as it dries.  Victor had Maggies fresh red blood on his coat still the next day.  I know, picky, picky, picky…

    You can have a head would and not have an open sore, gash or anything like that.  In a car accident when your head whips forward then back your brain can be banged around pretty much by hitting the skull.  Then there’s shaking baby syndrome.  But I agree to be hit on the head you’d have some sort of visible gash.
