Nurses detail horrific conditions at warehouse where patients were evacuated ahead of Hurricane Ida
CNN
Two nurses who helped evacuate residents from seven nursing homes to a Louisiana warehouse told CNN on Tuesday that some health care workers spent days trying to keep patients alive while enduring supply shortages, electricity cuts and what they described as a negligent nursing home administration.
One nurse told CNN the facility administrator "told us we were going to a medical facility. They told us we were going to sister facilities out of town; they at no time told us they were going to a warehouse." The nurse recalled the administrator describing the warehouse as "a medical facility in Independence."More Related News
