Naloxone wasn't allowed in the hospital pharmacy? Or did they "not notice" he had quit breathing? Sounds like a malpractice suit!

You misunderstand. What do you think happens when the patient becomes a hospice status? Increasing amounts of narcotic is given and they drift off, whether intentional or not.

Apparently so; I thought you said ICU. My grandmother was on hospice. She had to be temporarily taken off hospice when she needed medical treatment, esp. hospitalization.

I did say ICU, but as you know, no adequate treatment was being given to COVID patients. Once the ok was given for narcotics, I knew he was done.
