In having lap band surgery, I only had a 23 hour stay. The nurses were phenomenal in that they wer compassionate, caring, and showed a genuine concern for my well-being. Pain medication was readily available and I never felt much discomfort at all. The hospital was clean. The staff was friendly and kept me apprised when my surgery ended up being significantly later than planned. I would recommend UNC to anyone thinking about having surgery.

The nursing/nurses aides aren't the best in the world. I had 2 excellant nurses out of 5. The room was only cleaned once during my 4 day stay.

Other than the poor parking and the distances, this hospital was top notch. Even with it being a teaching hospital, it was still excellent care. The cafeteria is overpriced.

lmw2556 for UNC Hospital

My only real complaint was that for the first 5 days in the hospital my daughter(Who is an RN) stayed with me and the nursing assistants did not help out at all because she was there "to take care of me". My daughter weighed 110# and she ALONE turned me in bed EVERY TIME I was turned during those first 5 days because "she was trained to do that"!!! I made a complaint to the nurse manager about this and I can assure you that things quickly changed after that. We only had 1 CNA who was consistantly helpful and the nurse manager was told of this also so that this young woman could be congratulated for doing her job as it should have been done...the others decided that they could just take a holiday since I had my own "built-in help". The nurses were advised of this but it didn't do much good until the nurse manager became involved then things quickly improved...however by that time my daughter had returned home and my husband took over...and they allowed him to take over where Brandi left off EXCEPT they weren't quite as obvious about it!!!

Cynthia B. for UNC Hospital

The nursing staff was mediocre--a couple of great nurses who really were responsive and sensitive but most seemed to do only the bare minimum. The nursing aid staff was horrible, sometimes leaving me in the bathroom for over 15-20 minutes following a call for help. This was very distressing. Since I had no visitors (I live nearly 200 miles away) I had no one to help me get assistance. This would be my only recommendation: have someone who can pop in and out and make sure you are being taken care of--esp. until you are able to take care of yourself.

Linda C. for UNC Hospital

Hospital - no problem
staffing - night shift seem to be excellent. day shift was either too busy or would rather spend their time taking care of other patients. i went 2 days without a tray after they stopped the trays from being delivered. the day i left the hospital i didn't get ANYTHING, not even broth!
a semi-private room sucks when the person put in the room with you is 89 years old and you're freezing. i woke up more than one time with the thermostat sitting on 80. I was miserable! But they were worried about keeping her warm. I didn't even have a gown on at this point and I was ringing wet with sweat. but oh well, i'm out of there.
