Gamanit – I will not make believe that I did get the details, I did not, nor was I interested at the time. I do know first hand that emergencies like these do happen, especially in the more chassidishe communities as more childbirths means more OB emergencies. Being that I cannot prove that to you I will leave it at that.
Furthermore, most OB related emergencies occur in the hospital, the ones that do not are usually the very serious ones that require the staff to be fully prepared and rapid transport with early intervention makes a difference in patient outcome.
