Kearney Regional Medical Center

I went on a tour of the Platte Valley and Kearney regional facility. This place has all the bells and whistles. Probably the nicest hospital I’ve ever seen. The doctors and nurses are committed to serving the mission of the hospital. Overall this place is ran well and the programs and decisions are crafted by the Kearney community.

The hospital is great. Really like the care everyone gave my husband getting him ready for surgery. I got a phone call letting me know everything was going well and that he was getting close to done. My daughter and I talked to the dr. Which was good. Once he got to the room the staff in the 400 wing was great and on top of things. No complaints at all. Until the shift changed. Than it was a disaster. No one had a clue. Didn't know how to put a neck brace on nor to get the oxygen tube out of the way of the brace. He was told he had to go out and walk and we kept asking. They kept being put off on later. Than we asked about super and finally after 7 they brought him something. For someone who had major neck surgery they gave him a chicken breast. Had to eat when swallowing is a bit tough.
Bussed several different times had to go to desk first time because no response. Glad he wasn't having any major issues. Than other times it took forever. They just did not do what they were suppose to do.
When I left for the night at 8 I looked at the nurses station and what did I see but 3 girls sitting there on their personal phones. Not cool in my book. If they want the degree and make that better money than in my book they need to work for it. I'm don't like paying for something that I don't get the care my husband deserves when just getting out of surgery.

I had to have an emergency appendectomy. Now I had been to 3 hospitals in my home state. None of them caught this issue. They instantly knew what was wrong and threw me into surgery. Quickly. At 3am. If I could give this place 10 I would easily.

Would like to Thank the nurses and staff at Kearney Regional Hospital birthing center. They went above and beyond anything I could ever have imagined. The care and kindness they showed my daughter and my new born grandson received was truly amazing. Thank you again

In the past few days I have seen several of the doctors at Kearney regional hospital. I found the doctors, nurses, and general staff to be friendly and professional, with one glaring exception Dr. Azzam . My experience with Dr. Azzam was brief, but far too long. I found him to be rude bordering on combative and unprofessional in every way. If they schedule you with Azzam I would strongly recommend you tell them you would like to see someone, anyone else.
