Excellent. The best hospital I've seen. |
| Comments: |
The staff and facilities are excellent. The only things I didn't like were the "general call" speakers in the patient rooms that broadcast all day, and the location and size of the patient televisions which I couldn't use because I couldn't see the screen. |

I felt the safest being at one of my own hospitals. There are bad things that happen at every hospital but I felt the most confident staying with Memoral Care. |

Need to discuss Pain Meds AHEAD of the Surgery, the Pump works well but it took me 8 hours to get additional meds approved. Need to tell your doc to put an order in place for "breakthrough" shots and to increase the morphine pump to higher dose if you have a high morphine threshold like I do. My pulse had to go to 140+ for 6 hours before the reluctantly called the doc to approve more pain meds. |

| It's the hospital my insurance approved and my doctor's group uses. |

It's quite a bit smaller, but this adds to the homey feel. They care for their patients. |
| Comments: |
I was overall happy. I do have a minor issue with the emergency room staff, but if you want details about that you'll need to email me. The rest of the staff and facility are very nice! |

The hospital and staff was very pleasant. Very quick to respond to every need that was asked of them. Some nurses were cranky, but other than that, overall stay was a good experiance. |

Some of the nursing staff had no clue about a c-pap machine. Some were very unresponsive and not understanding. I had a problem with my I.V. and the nurse LyLy ignored it until Lynne, the next day, insisted that it had to come out. My hand looked like a baseball. LyLy said that it was fine - ha! |
