I think the casinos are already equipped for emergencies but they cannot do anything if somebody has an cardiac arrest and God forbid dies there,there is nothing the casino can do in such scenario.Of course I agree that more should be done in order to achieve better responses to emergencies like having a doctor there for any case, like a cardiac arrest that is not fatal but leaves the person stunned and the doctor should intervene, it is not enough to have a first aid kit in such scenario.

Aside from having a stand-by doctor, the casino should also have a stand emergency van to rush such cases to the hospital, because if you look closely into this case, even though the man's death happens so fast, due to the nature of his heart attack, but the action of the dealer to have neglected the gamblers instead of raising alarm for some others helping hands even if he needs to continue with his business.

So having a stand-by van to move emergency in public utilities such as a casino is most appropriate for this kind of incident.

On the other hand, I would argue that the family of the deceased is trying to obtain money from the casino. Do you think the casino is to be blamed?

I do not know about the lawsuit to be right or wrong, but according to how I see it, it is totally wrong. Anyone can die of cardiac arrest at certain middle or old age.

Only what I know that can happen is to rush the man to a hospital nearby, but which can be done by some of the casino workers that are in charge of something like it in the casino. But it can be too late, cardiac arrest can occur fast and lead to death.

A man experiencing cardiac arrest and who later died was slumped over a blackjack table at Wynn Las Vegas for more than 15 minutes while the dealer continued to deal cards to another player, according to a wrongful death lawsuit filed this week in District Court. David Jagolinzer, an attorney from Florida, was staying at the Wynn when he suffered a cardiac arrest on April 6, 2022, while playing blackjack on the casino floor. The dealer at his table continued to deal while Jagolinzer was slumped over, according to a complaint filed Thursday.

This happened in 2022 and although I do not know the outcome of the court case, my thoughts are that the discussion about casinos should go beyond security measures to cover how prepared they are in the event of a health emergency . I think that well-equipped First Aid Kit and trained paramedical staff could significantly contribute to ensuring the safety and well-being of casino patrons. Although casinos are primarily places where people go for entertainment and profit, the operators should put in place health emergency measures could potentially mitigate the impact of unforeseen events. On the other hand, I would argue that the family of the deceased is trying to obtain money from the casino. Do you think the casino is to be blamed?

I read the article and it seems the actual problem here is that dealer ignored the man and continued card dealing. Also, Wynn security saw what was happening and didn't act. Is that a crime? Sure, casinos should train their employees for first aid help. Not only train but they shouldn't be like a robot, I know casino dealers are prohibited to stop gambling session even if their colleague passes out, that's a pure evil thing but at some point as someone explained me, that's because sometimes people cheat when they lose a lot and one would do such a thing to stop the gambling session to avoid financial loss. But I don't think that's a good explanation.

To be honest, it was impossible to escape that man who had cardiac arrest. It's a fatal accident, I've seen myself in real life how a man dead from cardiac arrest, it happened in seconds. If you really aren't in hospital, it's impossible to escape because no ambulance can come in some minutes.

The dealer has failed in all responsibility and the lawsuit is most appropriate because even though cardiac arrest is a complicated issue that needs professional attention which can be gotten at the hospital from a doctor, the dealer failed to show any form of health measures to save the man but also the dealer went ahead with his businesses this is a case of negligence since this happens in a physical casino and at that the regulators should have outline safety practices to them before getting them a license.

I had to read the link to see if the dealer made any attempt at all, but I did not see any significant information on the case and what becomes the final judgement, but in all senses, it is not appropriate for the dealer to have neglected the customers immediately he slumps over the blackjack board.

I don't know the law about safety measures in Florida but every establishment here in our country that deals with gathering people should have medical equipment or people should be trained to address medical conditions like this, if there is a law mandating establishment then the casino will have liability and should be charged by his family.

There is injustice done to the player he should be alive if there is no negligence or the casino did not implement training their staff to address this kind of issue, so it is right for the family to ask for compensation its not that they are trying to extract money to the casino they are just doing what is right for their relative.

They are already prepared with any kind of (First Aid Kit)

But, do you know? most of the kit is only for the common case. Cardiac arrest (heart-attack) is not really a common case (it's really rare to be happening) and most of service provider is also are gonna to provided the same things that casino provided.

They are ready, for any kind common issue because that was the most they're facing.

The casino most likely didn't know he was having a heart attack. If they did know, he would have been dragged out of the casino so that they will not have any responsibility for his death. Incidents like this don't happen often but I do think casinos have clinics to respond to such incidents.

Since you already said you are going to argue about it, I will not object anymore. Grin

But would they still blame the casino if they responded fast and for like a minute he was delivered to a hospital with advanced devices yet he was still declared Dead on arrival?
