Community Hospital Monterey Peninsula (COE) Hospital

Overall, it was a very good experience. There were some language barriers with a few of the nursing staff, which was unsettling.

It was hit & miss with the hospital staff. I had really good nurses & aids and some really bad ones. The good ones were a god send, making me feel very cared for and glad to be there. Now if they would have all been like that, it would have been excellent.

I had great care and they went above and beyond to make me comfortable.

Every department I dealt with at CHOMP was a reassuring and pleasant experience. From my pre-registration, which I did over the phone, to reporting to Short-Stay to be prepped for admittance, to the gentlemen that had to wheel me back & forth to x-ray and the operating room, to the anethesiologist (don't know how to spell it) right before surgery to the recovery nurses to the post-surgery staff, I say thank you, thank you, thank you! They made me feel that my comfort and complaints were important to them. And for that I am so appreciative.

nice place to stay if you have to be in the hospital

Wonderful hospital. Good staff. Like all hospitals, lots of noise. But, keeping your door shut also shuts most of the commotion out. There's major construction going on so parking is a bear; however there's shuttles constantly going around.

I am a Chomp employee, so perhaps I received different care than other patients, but I doubt it. From the Short Stay unit where my hospitalization began to the med/surg unit Garden South, I can only say good things. Every step flowed like clockwork. I arrived and was quickly greeted by the Short Stay staff. My history was reviewed,VS taken,preop meds given, and my IV started. Then off to the OR, where the staff quickly and courteously greeted me and whisked me within minutes into the operating suite. The next thing I recall, I was in the recovery room with my nurse hovering over me to assess and relieve my pain and nausea. Once I was alert enough, and my bed ready, I was quickly taken to my room. I remained there the rest of my stay. The staff was wonderful. My nurses were very quick to bring me pain medicine (except once), and checked on me frequently. The nurse's aides were all delightful. Overall, I could not have asked for a nicer experience, or more responsive staff.

the nurces wehre all so wonderfull. i had my own room that had a pation right outside with a table and chairs. it was so nice the beds where so comffy and soft. every time i ran for a nurse they came right in within 5 minutes. they where all so very nice and concerned at how i was felling.

This hospital was wonderful. It was nicely decorated and had lots of skylights and gardens. It also had an indoor KOI pond that was alot of fun to sit by. Beautiful views of the Monterey Bay and surrounding trees.

It's clean, beautiful inside and out. It looks more like a luxury hotel than a hospital.
