This still makes me sick on how corrupt my city can be. The tourists come first here and residents last. How can you not reopen this facility and gives us more jobs and business around there.
Well, ya see, if you want businesses to return, you gotta flood (no pun intended)NOLA with police. Get tons of cops in, the crime goes down and businesses have a reason to re-open. (It will be rough at first) Its literally crime. Crime kills business Good Business strongly deters (not prevents) crime. Strong police require lots of funding via sales/business taxes or if a state/city is smart, they get tourists to pay for the police protection through various ways.
This breaks my heart. A community coming together to save a critical not-for-profit hospital… and the powers-that-be have already decided they wanted a new hospital. Fuck all else. What are your thoughts on the short series Five Day at Memorial? Unfortunately only available on Apple TV at this time.
Just watched another documentary that explained the whole situation. I cannot believe they didn’t reopen a perfectly good hospital! Makes me sick!!!!!!!
I will always have a love and respect for Charity Hospital. They’re one of the reasons my moms still here from her battle with Breast Cancer❤. Sad to hear this story
I have to say; those responsible for shuttering Charity Hospital and thereby withholding care from those who proved to be in desperate need of life saving intervention, will be held accountable on the day of Judgement. I salute those who sacrificed much in their selfless dedication serving the people of New Orleans, and to those who fought to save the facility. God bless the housekeeping staff, nurse aides, cooks, social workers, nurses and doctors who worked in the spirit of sacrifice. One who has Worked and Knows the Health Care Industry
I know someone who proudly told me he was born there.He was so proud as he drove by the now closed building due to Katrina. It should be reopened for the people and its historic significance ❤❤❤❤
WoW, Charity Hospital…I had my Son there in 1990. He stayed near 3 months in NICU as that many months premature. I can’t say enough of how this Hospital & Heroic Employees & Volunteers there were aid to my City.
Greed took away their hospital and they kept seeing patients anyways. That's an awe inspiring level of dedication. Edit: God that's so much corruption and damage.
Thanks to this Hospital and the staff my daughter and myself are alive today, had 11 Doctors for my first baby born there in early 1970's. Had to have C-section, young, broke, but the care we got was excellent. They saved our lives that day..very Thankful to all of them. SHAMEFUL they let this place fall by the wayside, SO many in N.O. depended on the HELP they could receive there. 😢
Born and raised in new Orleans when Katrina hit we were in baton rouge it took us 17 hrs to get to br... Katrina will always be apart of us ...ppl of the world will never ever understand what we had to endure sorry we came to y'all city and turned them up,but y'all have no idea until yall walk in our shoes...I love my city ain't none like it ❤️❤️❤️❤️4eva new Orleans
As a Brit I think they did massive dirty on charity it was a wonderful hospital ,it never turned no one away had care staff , I feel so bad for the people that had there homes destroyed to make way for the new one not one care in the world for its people or them getting treatment they needed to me it’s corruption at its finest I’m so sorry to the people and charity will live on in the hearts of the people ❤
It’s bittersweet. My grandmother and grandfather trained there and so did I. The experience was top notch. The laundry and trash staff were criminal. Stealing visitors purses and many other things and everyone knew it. It was good hearted people for the most part. But it was underfunded so bad. Instruments and supplies were in shortage.
This is why all nurses and healthcare workers need to Pay attention to the basics and good patient care!!! Bc all these people had was each other and their patients.
Government corruption at its finest! Sen. Kennedy tried... It's why I still vote for him. I'm in tears watching this. My Grandmother worked at Charity for 40 years. No reason Charity closed! 😤😤😤😢😢😢
I am a intuitive reader I looked into that situation who ever was involved with closing down that hospital 🏥 they gotta pay off that karmic debt spiritually because a lot of people died behind that hospital not being open that hospital meant a whole hell of a lot to the community how can u take away something so historical there is an energy about that hospital that is so Divine, energy never dies period. The way they handled that situation was so cruel it’s upsetting me. I live in Atlanta ga born at Grady memorial Hospital its a old hospital just like charity hospital. Grady memorial is very historical it’s the main hospital downtown Atlanta to go to when you don’t have insurance. Believe me the governor is paying for it spiritually that’s worse kinda karma until he is still being haunted spiritually for what he did you gotta be careful what you do he is no spiritually protected, being spiritually protected is more important than anything fuck money, you can have all the money in the world but without spiritual protection you through dealing.
@@RealLifefunny81 that's charity in Nola. After Katrina it was cleaned up and ready to go, but that didn't line the politician's pockets so it was said that it wasn't safe to open. It's really sad..

Nothing like corrupt Louisiana politicians! My daughter went to Charity Nursing School and did her residency at Charity Hospital; it’s a shame to see Charity Hospital in this condition because of the rotten politicians and their bullshit. Plus such a waste of money spent when it could have been used to put back into Charity Hospital and help them reopen once again. There was nothing wrong with it, they were ready for patients, they were begging the state for patients. Pitiful…! Makes me sick to my stomach to hear stories like this. Sure another hospital was built but now what happens to the “Old Charity” that’s been there since the 1700’s and still has good bones. It could have easily been refurbished and remodeled. It was built to save lives and to help people and it was doing that for 285 years. So, what was the problem? It wasn’t pretty, enough? Please….! 🤬😡 Sad, just sad; to not even go look at the hospital and see if it was in good enough condition to reopen is just wrong!! On the other hand, a huge “Thank you” to all of the doctors, nurses, staff, military personnel, volunteers and anyone else who helped out during this time, I applaud you for trying.
I remember Charity hospital 🏥 it was a nun hospital 🏥 because I was born at Charity Hospital 🏥 on November the 28th 1960 and I have my first Operation at Charity Hospital 🏥 because I was born with Podio and I had my kids was born at Charity Hospital 🏥 and when Katrina hit New Orleans she took the best Hospital 🏥 in New Orleans and now Charity Hospital 🏥 is no more and now me and my family lives in Houston Texas because of Katrina Joyanna 💞 💞 💞 💞 💞 💞
Dr Larry Hollier comes across as a condescending nitwit... We should have stop talking about it because "we didn't understand the situation" Wrong Sir... we understood it quite well. And a big thank you to all the soldiers who tried to save her. It's just not right...
Coming at this from a logical view, greed is our downfall as a society. Whether it be from the welfare state all the way to white collar, or a agenda to cause a failure when there was no reason for one. To be a community means to care about one another.
“People that live in that area who were inconvenienced” SIR Their houses were bulldozed This is BS that only rich people say. Having your beloved home of 20, 30, a hundred years leveled is not “inconvenient.”
I didn’t know about this but I was 12.5 when this happened and lived in Tennessee. The people of New Orleans got screwed and charity also got screwed. Also I feel like Larry Hollier is the reason it wasn’t reopened. And if he is the reason he should be in jail.
Deep down I still think them levees were destroyed on purpose by corrupt people to make way for the new hospital the corruption stinks to the core they didn’t care about the families or elderly ill or homeless one bit the staff at charity were god’s angels
So a big ass building sitting that if it couldn't be a hospital but maybe a giant outpatient facility or anything at this point but to let it rot for nothing is unethical and unjust LSU will be haunted forever by the ghost of the people they let down
If I were these people I would leave New Orleans and watch these private hospitals collapse no business they closed make New Orleans a fucking empty parking lot
@@leslieoquain8117 I didn't say they should leave the entire country. Hell, if your family has common sense, they would probably stay out of new orleans or move out with you.
And now Tulaine is all but closed. For over 200 years, New Orleans was the center of medicine in the United States. Tulain University was in the top 5 of medical schools in the world. Up until the city took a hard turn into socialist politics in the late 1990s. New Orleans wanted to out socialist California. Now Tulain can't fill its open spots for new students. So now you can get into medical school without passing your MCATS.
@@starketa10I agree with you on that..I lean Republican and this has nothing to do with Republican or Democrat.. Bobby Jindal didn't do anything to help and he was Republican.
This still makes me sick on how corrupt my city can be. The tourists come first here and residents last. How can you not reopen this facility and gives us more jobs and business around there.
It’s being reopened as rooms for the students at memorial

Good Business strongly deters (not prevents) crime.
Strong police require lots of funding via sales/business taxes or if a state/city is smart, they get tourists to pay for the police protection through various ways.
I have lived in Rayne Louisiana since losing everything in Katrina. I moved to NOLA in 1990 (14 years before Katrina) and I’m too old for that BS!

Charity treated me as a child. My son was born at Charity in 1993. I had back surgery at Charity in 2004.
I will always have a love and respect for Charity Hospital. They’re one of the reasons my moms still here from her battle with Breast Cancer❤. Sad to hear this story

I live in Atlanta and this is shameful what happened to Charity. It seems that there are some corrupt officials in this mess.
My Mom graduated from Charity Hospital, she will be 85 this year!
I lived in NOLA after the storm. Didn't know the story of the hospital. I wondered why it was closed. Great story. Thanks.

I cannot believe that man just said taking ppls homes was an “inconvenience” for them!!! 😡😡
Right?! That’s exactly what I said out loud when that idiot said that! Better to be assumed you’re a fool, than to open your mouth and confirm it!
You bet your ass they were "inconvenienced".... sickening
I know right?? Shocking, uncaring and totally out of touch.
It’s bittersweet. My grandmother and grandfather trained there and so did I. The experience was top notch. The laundry and trash staff were criminal.

Beautiful story untill they didn’t reopen

One paid. Karma came for her.

Just outright corruption. Charity should have never been closed.

FYI yall charity is becoming homes for students who are in medical school at Tulane/memorial
The same Old Charity...2023
The best surgeons came from charity cuz they saw it all.
Thank you lord for the fishermen wildlife capturing everyone

That's what Democrat governors do for ya.

Why bring politics into this when Bobby Jindal was in office for 8 years and did nothing???? He could've very well reopened this hospital.
