Southcrest Hospital Hospital

The accomodations were very nice. The staff were overworked and did not check on me as frequent as I thought they should have.

Hospital is poorly staffed. Too many patients and not enough nurses. Call light was left unanswered for long time or not answered at all. I was left in a baratic chair for 2 1/2 hours and my repeated calls for help were ignored. I was told someone would right there. No one never came. I had to get myself out of the chair by myself and was thrown forward in the chair very obruptly. That was extremely painful. This happened 3 days after surgery. I was in severe pain, asked for meds, nurse said not time, too soon, a family member went to the front desk to verify and it was discovered that not only was it time for pain meds but that it was 2 hours past time. I will never go back to that hospital if at all possible.

They are already expanding the Hospital, But it did not interfere with the care I received.

The ICU staff was WONDERFUL. They were sensitive to my needs and they were even willing to take initiative, unlike the general ward , where iI could call for hours and only have them ignore me.
