Some of the staff could be a little more attentive. One nurse named Toyia was wonderfull there should be more like her.
The hospital was great. I could never say enough about the treatment I received and the care I received. For this hospital being a small town hospital, my treatment was great. I loved it. I was a little afraid at first because the hospital seemed so small, but after my initial pre-op visit and then the surgery stay, it was great and I would gladly refer my closest family and friends to this hospital. The nurses were great. I had read a few posts about this hospital and was a little afraid, but evidently they didn't know what they were talking about, because the nurses were so sweet.
This is my opinion, someone else might have a totaly different experience. I felt I was pretty much ignored. I am not a demanding person. I think that if you are in a hospital that they should at lest check on you every few hours. They did not want to do much with you if you are overweight. That was the impression I got anyway. I had a room that did not have a bed table. They did drag a chair over for me to put stuff on. I could not use the phone because they could not get the chair close enough to the phone so it could sit on it. The nurses said that they could not find a table for me. About an hour before I checked out,one of the housekeeping staff noticed that I did not have one. She brought me one. She told me that they were in the room across the hallway. I was brought up from surgery at 11:00 that morning and my compression boots that were supposed to be working until I left the next day were not turned back on until 7.:30 that night. My IV was unhooked in the afternoon when an RN came in to give me some meds and told me she had to "pee real bad" and would be right back. She did not come back and the RN that came in my room at 7:00 found it unhooked. She was also the one that got my boots to work. Apparently you had to push a special button. She told me my doc would have a fit if he knew that they were not working. Her name was Carrie and she was very caring. She checked on me quit a bit that evening. No one asked me if I needed help to walk. When I was readmitted to the hospital a day after I was released with dehydration and a swollen shut stoma, I requested not to be put back on the surgical floor. My doctor said no problem. He did not act surprised at the request. I would recommed that someone be with you at all times there! You can bet I had someone with me the second time I was in there. I would give them a poor rating. My doctor was really good, though I wish he worked out of another hospital.
I did have some problems with the hospital making an agreement for payment with my insurance before they would schedule the surgery.
I recieved EXCELLENT care while in ICU. Had to stay there longer than usual, due to no room on the surgical floor being available. But that was good. The nurses in ICU were wonderful. Especially Debbie!
