Unnecessary ER visits

Autumn • 25, Boy Mom 💙

Maybe I'm just hormonal, but my sister and father go to the ER for EVERYTHING, at least once a month, and I roll my eyes every time I hear about it. They literally go if they have a headache. The last time my dad went, he was just dehydrated, because all he drinks is diet Coke and no water. My sister just came into the room complaining about her boyfriend not taking her to the ER, because she's had a headache for 3 days. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the ER for EMERGENCIES!? A headache is not life threatening, and no matter how many times I mention it, it's like they've never heard of Urgent care. 🙄 Sorry, rant over.
