With hundreds of thousands of employees and contractors, there are going to be mistakes made by medical staff. It seems Amazon's emergency care is a cheaper and more convenient alternative to UrgentCare, which is commonly used for handling workplace injuries (which usually aren't covered by personal health insurance plans). This article fails to show that it's worse than a typical UrgentCare facility. It's obvious to me that it wouldn't be as good as an emergency room. As with any job, it's important to get yourself to the emergency room if you don't get referred by the UrgentCare or on-site medical staff and think you need a second opinion.
