I think it is about average with the other local hospitals. I have always found our employees friendlier than most. |
| Comments: |
The only thing that was really bad was that it took 30 minutes and I had sometimes had to call twice before I got my pain meds. I spoke to the head nurse after discharge and she said the hospital is aware of the problem and are working on it. If you have a problem, do not hesitate to ask for the nurse manager or supervisor. |
