Lancaster General Hospital

General Hospital in Lancaster PA. In the city. Older but maintained well. Helpful, thorough, and knowledgeable. I had to go here because none of the local area hospitals provided what I needed. I went in a medical transport which enabled me to not worry about parking. I had to go to another place in the end because they opened up a new Cancer Institute. That's the place I actually needed.

Went into the Emergency room at 6AM and at 6:02AM I was being treated. The Receptionist, Nurses, Attending Doctor and MRI Operators were fantastic. Very professional and personable. I couldn't have had a better experience. It's great to know that if I need them, I have an excellent hospital nearby.

I was transported to LGH by ambulance. I was in ICU for about 6 days. I recieved good care. It was when I was moved to the 4th floor, things changed. The day shift was very good and attentive . The night shift was horrible. After 2 days I was transferred to Lancaster Rehab. A very precious painting that was given to me as a gift, conveniently did not make the trip to Rehab. I reported the painting missing, but nobody seemed to care. I never saw it again. I am very upset, so because of the lack of concern I give this hospital a 3. If patients have to worry about their belongings instead of getting better, then there is something seriously wrong with the employees of this hospital.

This is the most poorly mapped hospital. I was looking for dining room #3 for an AA meeting and couldn't find it. Also when I took the elevator to the second floor, I couldn't get back on because the doors locked behind me.

Husband sent here from a Patient 1st Facility. Doctors spent quality time explaining what was wrong. Nurses were attentive and went above and beyond, printing articles on condition and medicine. The only negative is that only diet soda is available. I understand their reasoning but Aspartame is a health problem for many, you should have a choice.
