Father-in-law admitted on 10-21-17 for complications related to advanced lung cancer. He was on floor 5 South and the level of service and care during the day was very good but the night shift nurses and attendants was far below any acceptable standard. Very rude and uncaring employees. When we attempted to discuss the issue with the nursing supervisor she blamed us for creating the problem when all we were trying to do was make my father-in-law comfortable in his final days of life. The attitude of the nurses is obviously an extension of the substandard supervision. You could get better care from a veterinarian than at this so called "care" facility.
My father went in Sept 3...it is now Sept 5..no new linen ( told no fitted sheets brought to wing) His gown too large (told no gowns) no soap (I went to gift shop to purchase $2.99 travel size dove) No one emptied trash or mopped today. Same empty bottles and chip sacks that were in vending area on Sunday, still there. The nurse and nurse assistant were attentive but it there were quite a few side conversations with employees complaining that the patient should not hear.
Sister's experience: extraction of kidney stone. Epic fail! Night nurses are GOD awful. No exaggeration. She is currently breastfeeding and no one will tell her if the meds they are administering are safe for baby. Their response is always, idk. Doc didn't relay to her the outcome of her failed surgery. She had a fever throughout the night and nurses never came back to check until right before shift change. They didn't change out her urin bag so her Cath was leaking and they just laughed about it. Next morning, doc still hasnt reported what went wrong in the OR. Worst patient care ever!
Worst hospital on multiple levels.
Thank god insurance is switching to payout based on patient outcomes, because this type of healthcare is completely unacceptable. You all should lose your license and ability to work with patients.
My experience: c-section April 2017. Without consent, they tried to allow a student to administer the spinal. When I realized what was going on I said no, I want the certified anesthesiologists to administer that. Even still, they couldn't administer correctly and wiggled the needle around trying to make the other side of my body numb but just kept injecting into the right side. (On my paperwork, this was never mentioned. False documentation). Baby finally delivered and was whisked away to the nursery bc of low blood sugar. He was given formula even though I wanted to breastfeed. He was cleaned without permission and kept away from me for 5 hours without justification. They wouldn't allow me to see or nurse my baby to regulate his blood sugar. They just kept giving formula. They were constantly pricking his heel for blood and continuously did it insufficiently so pricked again and again back to back. There was no lactation consultant around. The doc didn't follow up with me for ober 24hrs (and it was someone else, not even my doc). Food was awful. I will NOT be going back! Makes me sick to my stomach and emotional to even think about. I feel like I failed my baby.
My grandfather went in for open heart surgery. His surgery went fine, but he got sick a few months later and went back. They sent cultures to be tested and came back positive for something bad. The doctors gave him a strong antibiotic, which shut down his kidneys. Later, his infectious disease doctor told us that they had left the cultures on top of a cabinet and got them contaminated, he didn't need the strong antibiotics they gave him. THEY KILLED MY GRANDFATHER! DON'T GO HERE!
