Chicago's Mount Sinai Hospital has developed strategies to keep gang-banging patients safe, according to an article on the Fox 32 News website.
Injured gang members can pose problems for hospitals. If they succeed in saving a gang member's life, they often must protect the patient from another gang-related attack while they are recovering.
To protect potential targets, hospital patients sometimes get new names. Another security measure here is the use of metal detecting wands to check visitors to the emergency room.
The hospital also offers password-protected systems to make sure strangers can't phone in posing as a relative to get access to a patient's status.
