Patient-392

No Medical Care and None of His Prescription Medications for 8 days at Sunrise Hospital

Patient-392 went to Sunrise Hospital. She was a  tourist who was drugged at a restaurant while on vacation in Las Vegas. She was taken to Sunrise Hospital. No blood tests were taken. Patient was mistreated and misdiagnosed. Poor IV placement caused a large bruise. Patient called Sunrise Hospital 20 times and could not get resolution for the billing problems.

Patient-392 went to Sunrise Hospital.


Patient says:


I was taken to Sunrise Hospital after ordering a single drink from a waiter which came directly from the bartender at a restaurant in Las Vegas.


I was completely incoherent and unresponsive within 20 minutes of ingesting the drink.


My friend told the paramedics I was drugged. Yet, when I arrived at Sunrise Hospital, I was treated like just another person who had too much fun and alcohol on the strip.


No blood tests were taken to check for drugs such as GHB in my system.


I found out later that this same establishment has had similar cases where women have been drugged by the bartender with GHB.


All they gave me as Sunrise Hospital was an IV. I woke up with a bruise the size of a tennis ball due to the poor administration of the IV.


I woke up in the middle of the night with no idea of how I got there or what happened.


I asked multiple nurses and care aides for a phone so I could call my friends, and I was simply ignored by everyone.


They left me sitting/lying in the bed for hours --- until 6 hours later when I was finally given a phone to call my friend to be picked up.


I submitted my bill to my insurance company. However, they told me that I was being denied because they do not cover any bills categorized as "alcohol intoxication" --- even though I was mistreated and misdiagnosed at Sunrise Hospital.


I am now stuck with a $2,500 medical bill because of their error (putting false information in my medical record).


I have called Sunrise Hospital over 20 times to explain that this bill is not covered by insurance, and they keep saying they haven't received a denial from my insurance company --- so they can't give me an uninsured discount plan.


All I want to do is pay my bill and NOT re-live this horrific experience of being drugged (while on vacation in Las Vegas).

Date Rape Drugs

Common symptoms and how to stay safe


Become familiar with the signs associated with date rape drugs like Ketamine, GHB and Rohypnol, and how to protect yourself from becoming a victim.


How to recognize the symptoms of date rape drugs


The effects of date rape drugs vary depending on the substance, the amount ingested, and whether it’s combined with alcohol or other drugs. Common symptoms include:


  • Dizziness or confusion. Victims often feel disoriented or lightheaded, and their ability to think clearly is significantly impaired.
  • Nausea or vomiting. Many date rape drugs can upset the stomach, leading to sickness or vomiting.
  • Drowsiness or unconsciousness. The sedative effects of drugs like Rohypnol or GHB can make victims feel extremely tired or cause them to pass out entirely.
  • Memory loss. One of the hallmarks of date rape drugs is an inability to remember what happened while under the influence. Victims may have patchy or complete memory loss of the event.
  • Impaired motor skills. Victims often find it difficult to move, speak, or control their body.
  • Sudden feeling of intoxication. If someone has only consumed a small amount of alcohol but suddenly feels overwhelmingly drunk, a drug may have been added to their drink.


What to do if you think you’ve been drugged


Acting quickly is crucial if you believe you’ve been drugged, as these substances work fast and can impair your ability to make decisions. Here are key steps to take:


  1. Get to a safe location. If you’re in a bar, club, or social setting, alert a friend, trusted individual, or staff member, and immediately move to a safe area.
  2. Contact help. Call 911 or have someone contact emergency services. It’s essential to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
  3. Do not urinate if possible. Drugs like Rohypnol and GHB leave the body quickly, and a urine sample taken within 12-24 hours is crucial for detection. Inform medical professionals that you believe you’ve been drugged.
  4. Ask for a toxicology test. Even if you’re unsure, it’s important to request a drug test that screens for substances commonly used in drug-facilitated sexual assault.
  5. Seek support. After medical treatment, consider reaching out to local support services or sexual assault helplines to discuss your options and get the help you need.How to avoid getting drugged at a bar.
