Wanderfam! What a Sham! | Steps to Wander | Part 8

Is it just me or does their camp set up look awfully depressing?! No grill.
Super bare set up.
Looks like all they own is a their crappy wagon and couple fo camp chairs. We camp a lot at RV Parks and their set up looks super sad and poor.

Wonder how long before something else “breaks” on that crap wagon??!

[Parktown]

Is it safe to go out in the middle of nowhere to camp like that? I mean sitting ducks and all? I don’t know I would be too unnerved to sit and enjoy with all the incidents you hear!

[natnat89]

They are still renovating that nasty RV and Summer is almost over they are truly a whack job of a couple!! Dumping endless $$ into the RV when it will soon be locked up for the Fall and Winter.

Did anyone see Corbins post “justifying” how used RV’s all have water damage?! Basically he caught on to someone saying he’s an idiot for purchasing it and he’s trying to convince everyone how bad of a shape it wasn’t in to begin with

Oh and a new business?! Gosh these two really are full of it.
Every “business” they ran was a complete FAIL!!!!! Literally.

[Parktown]

I hope Tabor is fine but these two have no business dragging a baby that hasn’t even turned one yet ,in a dump of an RV, around in the mountains just so they can play happy campers!!!

Is it normal for people in the US to go to urgent care for a baby with a 104 fever? I don’t want to sound rude but in my country we don’t go to a doctor and especially not an urgent care. A fever is just a fever. As long a child is still responsive, drinking and hydrated there’s no problem with a fever at all.

Normally that is true, but with COVID right now I would be concerned and taking my 9 month old to Urgent Care too.

Except Boise right now has a increasing amount of cases and if dumb and dumber would have any amount of common sense which I know is not possible with these two. But anyway anyone with symptoms needs to call to see where to go and how, because the last thing we need right now is someone just walking into a health care office with a possibility of infecting everyone there with COVID! So yes he needs to be seen but they need to call the number and safely get him seen without risking anyone else’s health not that they care I know!

Here where we live the Urgent Care is a testing site for COVID. If you have COVID symptoms you’re to call ahead ahead and they’ll be waiting for you outside. Twiddle-Dee and Twiddle-Dumb don’t have enough brains to call ahead first though.

It depends. Like you said, if they're active and staying hydrated, that's one thing. If they are quiet and not playing or acting "sick", you might want to get them checked out. Both my kids had roseola when they were babies, and the first symptom is a fever pretty much by itself. And then the rash shows up, and it's like, ohhh, that's it! Nothing to do for it but treat the symptoms.
Right now I personally wouldn't go to Urgent care unless there were more symptoms than just the fever.

They are just cry babies!!! Remember they always took June in for the smallest things??!! My husband is in the Medical field and our kids have had 104 MAAAAAANYYYY times, we never took them in. If it persists over 48 hours and vomiting is present, you take them in. I love how Corbin uses his insta as a kick and scream platform now. He’s now tagging the Hospital and saying how “disappointed” lil Corbie is of course your baby is lethargic, he has a FEVER YOU MORONIC CLOWN
Side note: My Urgent care doesn’t take State Insurance, and I know people have got sent out of there.

Sooooo.....................

There are two Urgent Cares in our Township. They’re both affiliated with different hospitals. The one by me at my end of the Township accepts Medicaid the one at the other end of the Township by where my younger brother lives does not. He should have a pediatrician to go too. Knowing those two he probably hasn’t been to the pediatrician in lord knows how long. That would explain why Tabor’s flat head has never been addressed and treated.

I’m an ER nurse and people bring their kids to the ER all the freaking time for fevers. Or just “feeling hot” because lots of people don’t even own thermometers. They won’t have even tried Acetaminophen or ibuprofen first before coming. The kid will spike a fever and the parent is like “I rushed them right in!” I try to do lots of education with these people but it often doesn’t matter, it just keeps happening.

Sure maybe they wanted a covid test in this situation but to answer your question about Americans running to urgent cares and ERs for fevers, yes that is extremely common unfortunately.

They even managed to make a whole YouTube video on it
What on Earth are they doing??!! They think the Earth is their playground and everyone follows their Needs/wants.

My husband actually took our daughter in, two nights ago, NO PROBLEM. Walked and got seen. So um ya, to say they have state insurance the Urgent Care just didn’t take them cause even the reason can be legit. Because I personally know people it’s happened to, unfortunately.
Tabor didn’t have a seizure he had a fever, and according to Kelsey it was “itching” up to 104. Corbin Corbin Corbin...the weasel that cried wolf. The poor kid is probably teething. But again, they have no clue even tho it’s their second one.
I can’t stand these two lazy asses!

I wonder if they have heard of TeleDoc? Or even bothered to call in first to check where to go, again they are IDIOTS!

[FakingIt_MakingIt]

They already have a youtube video up about it. I havent, and wont, watch. I just cant stand listening to Corbin whine and complain, even if he's in the right. Given their track record though Im thinking the urgent care was right to send them home. Im in Canada, we dont have an urgent care, but Im guessing its similar to a ER. Covid guidelines ask that you call ahead (unless of course its a true emergency like bleeding to death or something, NOT a fever...) to reduce your chance of being exposed and to allow the nurses to prep for your arrival to reduce their chances of being exposed. In fact you cant even get in the ER here without pressing the call button or phoning from your cell phone, and for a fever they would definitely ask what youve done to bring it down, other symptoms, ect. likely resulting in sending you home with a suggestion of calling your primary care dr if it persists.

Thanks for your explanation! The rushing to a doctor for a simple fever just sounded a little bit overreacting to me. Interesting to hear that it’s common!

By the way: don’t Americans have to pay a lot for doctor visits? I hear some YT’ers complain about it. In my country we can go to a doctor for free for as many times as we want but we still don’t go often because we don’t want to overreact and go to a doctor for nothing or a simple fever.

So true! What was the point of that video? They always find a way to make themselves look even more idiotic.

Healthcare workers ARE taking this seriously by requiring that people with symptoms call ahead of time and go to specific locations. Kelsey and Corbin didn't seem to grasp that. What about the situation made them think that it wasn't being taken seriously? Did they think that they could just waltz into a clinic with a fever during a pandemic without calling ahead or reading the sign on the door?

They weren't being turned away, they were being told that this facility was specifically for people that did not have fevers, because there is a global pandemic going on. They needed to call and drive to a different location. Our pediatrician has a separate facility now for any sick children to keep it separate from the well office visits. But our pediatrician is a fairly large practice that can afford to do that. This might be a smaller office that just can't risk seeing any child with a fever.

Their pediatrician probably should have explained this better to them, assuming they didn't give them the phone number for a specific urgent care. But ultimately it was their fault for not calling ahead and going to the right location. And of course you're going to have to ask yourself if it's worth the gamble that he will come into contact with something worse. Was she not giving him anything to bring his fever down? If it was 104 with a fever reducer I would probably be concerned as well. But I'd be looking to take my baby to an ER in that case IF the nurse's line at our pediatrician's office told me that's where I needed to go. I'm guessing they were just angry at the prospect of a bill that they couldn't afford.

Maybe I am old school and you shouldn’t do this, but when my kids got a fever, I tried to lower myself with OTC and a tepid bath. Of course two of mine vomited when they had a fever of 101 or more so a tepid bath was a necessity. Not one time did I ever take any of them to the ER for a fever. Broken fingers, wrists, elbows, foot, head wounds, face paralysis after a bug bite on a Sunday morning, but never a fever.

Broken fingers, wrists, elbows, foot, head wounds, face paralysis after a bug bite on a Sunday morning, but never a fever.

I think OTC fever reducer and a luke warm bath are still the recommendation. I would only go to ER after first consulting with the pediatrician's office to see if they thought it was an emergency.

Oh my GOD I made the mistake of reading his Instagram post and somehow it's so much worse than their dumb clickbait video. How many times can he say/write, "third world country." Obviously hasn't spent time in a developing country, since their scammy poverty tourism trip to India was canceled.

And you know that if one of their kids needed to be seen for a broken bone or something not viral, they'd be up in arms that potential covid patients were being seen at the same clinic. Separating those with viral symptoms from everyone is the safest option to prevent spread.

He wants people to believe that they were "kicked out with a 9 month 9 in her arms clearly in distress." First of all, he wasn't bleeding out and turned away. He had a fever. Probably not an emergency, otherwise you would be at an ER. And second, you were given a different location to go to. You didn't want to go because you didn't want to expose yourself to Covid. Kind of like all the people at the "clean clinic" who were trying to get seen and were exposed to your sick kid.

I bet they are those parents who let their sick kids play on the "well child" side of the pediatrician's waiting room.

In all honestly, it sounds like they are morons and their pediatrician is probably less than stellar. I'm glad ours always has same day appointments, virtual visits, and a seperate location for sick visits. They should have given them an appointment time, a referral to an urgent care that would actually see them, or instructions for how to treat it at home and what to watch out for if it becomes an emergency. They are probably on Medicaid and there probably aren't too many pediatricians to choose from that take it.

Your welcome! I will preface this with explanation with this is of course not all parents..plenty of people (as evidenced here) use the ER correctly and wouldn’t rush there for minor things like a fever. But many people do. Especially in lower income areas. This is partly due to lack of education and lack of health care...while people showing up to the ER for nonsense drives me nuts, I have to look at the whole picture. Our healthcare system is trash. The people using the ER like primary care don’t have primary care options, can’t afford it, or have to jump through hoops to be able to access it. Their government heath insurance typically covers ER visits, so the trip is “free” for them. Now I, an insured person, wouldn’t go to the ER unless I was on my death bed because I don’t want to pay the bill I’d be stuck with. Lots of uninsured people don’t have that fear hanging over their head and combine that with a lack of other options and potentially being poorly educated, off to the ER they go.

As far as primary care visits, this is all over the place. Assuming you have insurance (which can cost hundreds of dollars a month), a simple visit usually cost 25-35 dollars. If you have government insurance like Medicare or Medicaid, you may often end up with a co-pay as well. There’s a million things that go in to it. Simple answer, yes it’s expensive. If you are uninsured or underinsured, you have to rely on sliding scale and free clinics for care, which can still be costly and require jumping through a lot of hoops to access.

Bottom line, the system is messed the F up!!
