How did that happen? By the time we get to two times, if they refuse transport, that we will be arriving with the police if we are called again. Three times is too many.
First time was for wrist pain. I wanted to take her and get it over with (known abuser) but she refused when we told her that we could not waive the bill now that Medicare is denying her claims.
The second time she called 911 and she wanted to be transported to a psychiatric hospital. She said she had a cab coming but wanted to wait for it with someone. Only a deputy was supposed to be sent but somehow we ended up there too.
She didn't go and then got belligerently drunk and called again and threatened SI to the dispatcher so we went again (at four am). This time we told she was too drunk to refuse (and she was) so she walked to the ambulance and we transported to hospital detox. Hopefully she gets another 911 abuse ticket.
