Another Sad Kings County Hospital Story

A woman tells the Post that Kings County Hospital misidentified her father Rodney Wells and refused to change his name on his hospital ID bracelet. Staffers insisted on having ID to fix the mistake, so Reshena Wells went home to get one--all while her father was being treated for his heart attack--and while on the errand, Wells says "a doctor phoned to say he had died." Then her father was sent to the morgue under the wrong name (though with a note saying "his real name could be Rodney Wells"). Kings County is the same hospital where a neglected patient died after collapsing in the psychiatric ward ER's waiting room.
