The clip, which had over 18 million views by Nov. 14, shows the creator\u2019s daughter screaming in pain from a wheelchair while staff asked her check-in questions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis woman had her in the waiting area for more than 30 mins. The delivery was awful,\u201d the TikTok user wrote.<\/p>\n<p>  <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@kashman2814\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kashman2814?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">@kashman2814<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>deathly charge nurse! donot care bout black women and babies uncaring paperwork over life this baby had to have severe test in the 24h of birth do to her actions <\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Suggababies\u274c\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7572283617104202527?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\u266c original sound \u2013 Suggababies\u274c<\/a>   <\/p>\n<p>In a separate six-minute video, the TikTok user <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kashman2814\/video\/7572357363445796127\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">shared more <\/a>details about her daughter\u2019s delivery, explaining that she was told to wait for induction because no beds were available. Once her water broke and she returned to give birth, the alleged mistreatment occurred.<\/p>\n<p>The TikTok user says they were directed to enter the hospital through the front entrance, even though they arrived via the ambulance area while she was in active labor. When they requested a wheelchair, a nurse brought it out but refused to assist the birthing mother inside.<\/p>\n<p>Once inside, the birthing mother was screaming in pain, but the front desk staff told the TikTok user they couldn\u2019t assist until paperwork was completed. After signing multiple forms while in active labor, they were moved to another waiting area, where the initial video shows the mother still in pain while being questioned, prolonging her delivery.<\/p>\n<p>After the incident, the TikTok user publicly criticized Dallas Regional Medical Center, accusing staff of mistreating Black women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo not go to this hospital. This hospital is ghetto as hell. They do not care about black women or their babies,\u201d she said. \u201cThis is crazy. I read about stuff like this all the time, but to see this firsthand, this lady did not care the none of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>  <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@kashman2814\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kashman2814?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">@kashman2814<\/a> Replying to @Jackson  <a title=\"dallasregionalmedicalcentermesquite\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/dallasregionalmedicalcentermesquite?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#dallasregionalmedicalcentermesquite<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Suggababies\u274c\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7572357288986069790?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\u266c original sound \u2013 Suggababies\u274c<\/a>   <\/p>\n<p>Viewers have supported the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackenterprise.com\/address-black-maternal-health-disparities-self-advocacy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">family in criticizing the hospital,<\/a> with one TikTok user reporting that when they called to complain, the operator said they were aware of the incident but only asked if the caller had a medical emergency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI CALLED THE HOSPITAL EARLIER TODAY TO FILE A COMPLAINT after watching your videos,\u201d they wrote. \u201cThe operator said she was aware of the video and asked was I there and what was I calling for.
