3 Years ago, my Mother at 82 years old, broke her arm in an auto accident. Her "next of kin" were never contacted. After splinting her arm and giving her a bunch Hydrocodone, they released her at 3am to fend for herself. She woke up the next morning with hallucinations and called 911. That was our first encounter with this Hospital.

Recently, she was admitted for an bad infection in her leg. They prescribed some antibiotics and released her. Two days she was re-admitted because it was worse. They kept her 2 more days and released her again even though the leg was so bad she couldn't walk. The assisted living facility would not accept her back because the infection was too severe. So within 3 hours, they re-admitted her yet again.

5 days after that, still not able to walk on her own, they released her again . We tried working with the Case Manger during the last stay so that she could get transferred to a Rehab facility. They kept putting off processing the paperwork until 2 hours before they had already decide to release her again. She would have had to stay another 2 or 3 days in order to get her to the Rehab facility. She had had just about enough of their "hospitality".

We had to hire 24 hour care for her at $648 /day because the Hospital staff could not (or would not) do their job.

The emergency room was slammed when I came in Thursday after slicing my thumb open. The doctors and nurses were so friendly and helpful. For how busy they were, they managed to get to me in a prompt timeframe and gave me professional treatment.

I appreciate the staff for taking the time to help me out. Urgent Care turned me away. It took about two hours from start to finish and even then I was surprised because of how busy they were and given the state of the other people in the ER, I was definitely a low priority.

Thank you ER staff for all that you do and being so helpful.

The nurse's and doctor's in both the ER and the ICU are absolutely AWESOME!!!
They have saved my life on 3 separate occasions and I am so grateful and thankful that I had such amazing people who really cared for me♡♡♡

This is the worst hospital you can ever go to! I came with my mom shes in pain in her lower stomach, could be something serious, but no one cares nurses just stand around, doctors just stand in the halls and talk mean while they have her in the hall in pain and they say there are no rooms when we are right next to an empty room oh and HIPPA is seriously non existent around here the doctor knowing we are out here goes into a room next to us and says loudly the results and what that patient has I nor anyone else needs to know her business this hospital sucks if you love and value your family or friends do not bring them here

This place is nothing but a joke...
7 year old niece came in with a significant amount of blood loss from a possible broken nose.. when We asked how long it was gonna be until she was seen we were surrounded by security guards saying we were being irate & were told we needed to leave... all because we asked for a round about time as to when we would be seen.. Never once raised a voice. Never once cussed. Nothing. Asked a simple question.

They can see method out people looking for pain pills but don't want to take care of a pediatric patient with significant blood loss, in sever pain & complaints of being dizzy. You'd be better off taking any emergency you have to the vet down the road.
