Although severe dehydration was diagnosed at triage there is an elapsed time of 7 hours before IV fluids are administered...on a chair in the waiting room because there are no beds. Only received IV after our insistence (they were waiting for a bed first). And the bloods tests now show she has an AKI (acute kidney injury) due to the dehydration. 11 hours later she's still in the waiting room without a bed.
No, she doesn't drink & didn't overindulge
