At least they credit the spanish-speaking community with enough sense to recognize the difference between "feeling gassy" and "chest pains." English speakers are just sooo like that, you know?
Wendy - seems more to me like discrimination! Spanish speaking patients need REAL pain, but the English speaking ones can fake it...
Gasp! You're right! Where is this place? Discrimination!;)
Well, it is fairly common for first-time mothers to imagine they are in active labor when they're not.(My midwife always said if you can talk through it, it's probably not an active stage labor contraction.)
I love that Spanish speakers get different rules! "Funny!"
