Let me state right out I don't think this person deserved such treatment, and basic critical thinking and cross-checking the prescription for the inhaler (which surely should've been a phone call away?) in theory absolves the issue. It's just, well, personal experience leads me to be wary of medical care, not simply hit autopilot and think things will turn out great. It can from time to time! But, hey, this kind of story is an excellent caution...this is why it's very, very important to pester the ever loving dogsh!t out of your health-care provider to have every single detail prepared in your file before going into - essentially - the custody of a medical facility.
No matter how many times it might seem stupid for me to reiterate that with my condition I can't have any blood thinners - no Aspirin specifically - I simply don't trust anybody new with being, well, competent enough to make the connection themselves. I police what goes into my body with pretty good results. I go out of my way, time and again, to discuss my specific treatment needs and precautions. Granted, not everything is in my control, but the things I can monitor, I do try to get a handle on.
