Gee it's almost like things like this are part of the problem.
Not only the fact that our prison system is shit, but when prisoners get out of prison they are greeted by a world that is populated by people like you.
A good friend of my dad's died in prison from a heart attack because the prison wouldn't help him. That funeral was almost as bad as my grandparent's funerals for my dad.
And the people in Mass Debate say we should go for the Libertarian system, haha.

Yeah brah who needs rules and safety nets. Let's let corporations do whatever they feel like and not have any plan for healthcare beyond "churches will help you"

This is exactly what happens when you give corporations more rights than people.
I just started working in a long term care facility that handles brain injuries as an intern, so seizures happen sometimes and i've spent the last few days in training and orientation covering the SOP for things like this, and i'll try to offer a perspective to why the staff reacted the way they did.
"Scullark told The Huffington Post she filed the lawsuit because that's what her son, who suffered from schizophrenia and a seizure disorder"
Sheds some insight into why they turned down the ambulance/didn't treat this with as much care as they would someone else.
Since no one was there when he had the seizures, there is no indication for someone to be able to gauge on how severe the seizure was, and if to call 911. (if it lasts longer then 3-5 minutes, if it reoccurs is when you call in EMS, or if they have no history of a seizure). If someone has a seizure disorder, there's no real point in calling EMS out, unless their GP has specific instructions to do so if an incident happens, or if the seizures meet the bill as i said earlier, longer than 3-5 minutes, and reoccurring. I can sort of see why the nurse didn't call 911 the first time. The fact he was in his own urine doesn't really mean much, as it is common for people to urinate during a seizure. Nor does the mental status change really cause much of an alarm, as it is also common after a seizure for people to be foggy/out of it. But they should of dialed 911 if he continued to have seizures, and wasn't recovering from them appropriately, which the article seems to leave that information out. They should of dialed 911 when they found him since they had no way of knowing the severity of the seizures.
So where things DID go wrong, is 1: The first nurse should of contacted the on-call doctor. 2: The nurse on the shift after the first one should of been the one who was communicating with the on-call doctor, not the security guard. 3: The nurse should of called the on-call doctor when EMS arrived, and got the Go or No on transporting him. 4: they assumed, they assumed the seizure(s?) were normal for his condition, even though no one was there at the time when they happened, so they had no way to gauge the severity.
You guys can claim that corporations killed him, but in reality just poor communications and shitty staff killed him.
