Patients endured a harrowing night on the floor of the Guápiles hospital, forcing others to navigate around them. Shocking images reveal seniors and children receiving care and spending the night in these inhumane conditions. One woman bravely shared her mother's ordeal, highlighting the indignity and potential health risks faced by vulnerable patients.

Her 84-year-old mother, suffering from a lung infection, was placed in observation but ended up sleeping on the floor with medical devices attached. Despite the unsanitary environment, some patients reportedly received treatments while lying on the hospital floor. This unacceptable situation raises serious questions about patient care and hospital infrastructure.

The family's distress is palpable, with concerns about bacteria and the sheer lack of basic comfort. Even as morning approached, patients remained on the floor, a stark reminder of the critical state of the emergency observation area. Telenoticias sought an official response from the medical center, but none was received by publication time.
