LOS ANGELES (AP) - Workers at an inner-city hospital where a woman died last month on the floor of an emergency room have received training on their responsibilities, officials said.
Signs have also been posted at Martin Luther King Jr.-Harbor Hospital advising patients of their rights to get examined and treated for emergency medical conditions, according to a report released Friday by the county health department, which runs the hospital.
The report details the hospital's response to the death of Edith Isabel Rodriguez, which was captured on a security videotape. Rodriguez died of a perforated bowel at King-Harbor on May 9. Her death was ruled accidental by the county coroner's office.
