Summary

Quality patient care is the new social justice imperative. Dismayed by the dangerous, deceitful, and deadly practices of New York's Montefiore Medical Center and the doctors and lawyers hired to cover up their abuses, 23 Days at Montefiore journeys the path of a patient advocate fighting to save the life of an elderly woman forced to suffer multiple experimental surgeries.

A heart-wrenching listen, this audiobook explores 23 days of torment, denial of patient care, and first-hand accounts of the horrors experienced by many of the patients at Montefiore and the community in Bronx, New York.

This book also shares advocacy skills to help families protect their loved ones from the nightmares associated with any hospitalization, whether at Montefiore or elsewhere, and the bureaucracies of dealing with the hospital's administration at New York’s Health First and Albert Einstein College of Medicine's bioethics department.

"Thank you for the chance to read 23 Days at Montefiore. Your and Lucy's experiences at the hospital were abhorrent, and I am impressed by your determination to share and promote patient advocacy." (Deb Futter, Celadon Books)
