CNN speaks to Indiana mom who gave birth on the side of road after hospital discharged her

Mercedes Wells went to Franciscan Health Crown Point hospital in Crown Point, Indiana, to deliver her baby. After several hours, she was discharged from the hospital. The family says that eight minutes after leaving the hospital, she gave birth to a baby girl in their car on the side of the road. In a statement, the hospital’s president Raymond Grady apologized to Wells saying the hospital staff “failed to listen” to her concerns and that they have taken steps to address “what failed in our hospital.” Grady says the doctor and nurse involved in the case no longer work there, and that all pregnant patients will be examined by a physician before they leave the hospital.
