Baptist Health Medical Center (COE) Hospital
I enjoyed my stay. The only negative thing was that I thought I would be on the 6th floor where gastric bypass patients usually go. Perhaps the floor was full or something. So I was on the 3rd floor where the staff was not as experienced in dealing with gastric bypass patients. No one, I mean no one came and got me up to walk or anything. Thank god I knew I was suppose to walk and I did. Nonetheless, the staff was very nice about helping get all hooked by up after my all of my walking, and I did a lot of walking too!
First off let me say I had some great nurses but the rest sucked! When I needed help to get out the "big girl" bed because of my IV no response. They did not offer me a bath until day 4! My mother did it for me. They were supposed to make sure I walked very hr, had O2 on and these pressure boots on and hooked up...when I did what I could myself and my family did the rest when they could. You can draw your own conclustions.
I was on the 6th floor. All of the nurses that I had were wonderful. They were all well aware of my doctor's expectations and orders. When I needed pain medication, they were in my room within minutes of my request. I don't think that I could have received better care any where else. My experience was excellent and I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone.
