It's a really nice hospital, not too big, not too small with many many caring doctors and nurses. The staff is awesome! |
| Comments: |
I was very satisfied. My only complaint was lack of privacy due to people in and out or my room constantly. I timed it one afternoon and there and within a 45 minute period I had the same nurses and assistants in and out of my room 7 times. That was ridiculous... I couldn't rest. That is my only complaint. I guess it's better than not having anyone care about you but I felt they could have maybe combined the trips in and out. One time I was half naked trying to change and they just walk right in! I'm yelling... hold on... hold on... I'm not dressed! Sheesh. |

| Comments: |
Their staff were awful and not helpfull ever! The staff were always confused and had no idea what the heck they were doing. The would not let you get one minute of sleep EVER! They never managed my pain not one time. They retaliated when I bothered them too much for normal requests like severe pain. There was only one RN on so she was busy just despensing meds but a lot of the time the assistant was better anyway but unknowning of what was going on always. I will never return again and will tell as many people as I can what a horrible experience I had there!!!! |

Far superior to any other hospital I have ver been in. |
| Comments: |
I am a nurse so we tend to be a little more critical of the medical facility because we know how it is supposed to be. That being said, I can't say enough good things about this facility. In nursing school this is how I heard it would be, but never has been. The facility and the care was wonderful. |
