My husband fainted and fell to the floor June 8 in an exhibition hall at the San Diego County Fair. Although the EMTs, paramedic, and nurse provided by the fair quickly tested and assessed his situation and he recovered, at their suggestion I drove him to an ER. When we arrived at Palomar Medical Center on advice of our primary physician group, a nurse checked him in and directed us to wait his turn. Off and on for about an hour, ER staff checked his vitals, administered an EKG, took his blood pressure and an X-ray, and then...

SAN DIEGO – It's a scenario that plays out hundreds of times a day across San Diego County. People call 911 and hang up.
