I have, admittedly, commented with out reading the entire story and based judgement on that fact that he was a 'regular.'

I worked for 5 years in a Calgary ER and know full well how the system works and how it is abused.

That doesn't mean he shouldn't have been checked on, though. But I can see how he may have been missed.
