Providence St Peter Hospital

Want to die? This is the place to go! Internal infection going on two years, all the symptoms of "hours before death" minus clammy skin, can't hardly make sense of what's going on around me (let alone writing this, but I'll be damned if I die of this infection, and there's no word on how hard I've tried to live). Get reeled into the ER via ambulance.

FIRSTLY, this is where my partner and I WASTED five hours of our lives filling out Medical Power of Attorney paperwork, just to have it "lost" upon my first psychiatric visit. Not medical visits, it was there and respected until my first psychiatric visit. We're certain the head nurse at the psychiatric ER was responsible for this for MANY reasons.

Now, about this time, before I'm out of time... My Medical Power of Attorney was again COMPLETELY IGNORED, not allowed to join me for any procedures, I was repeatedly asked for my name and date of birth, that I informed them that I cannot give right now because I'm too out of it, and that's exactly what my Medical Power of Attorney is for. NO ONE, even after being informed, paid attention to him.

And here's the kicker: We have done enough (CT scan, etc.) to determine that something really is going on here, and it's BAD. Security comes in and tells me I HAVE to get off campus BECAUSE OF MY PETS, WHO ARE QUIET, AND IN THE EXACT PLACE, LEASHED, THAT MY PARTNER PUT THEM. I'm released (WITHOUT signing any form of discharge paperwork, but being told that I did- my partner wasn't even asked to sign anything), and though I haven't stepped a single step on my own, I'm asked to WALK OFF PROPERTY BY MYSELF, only offered to be wheeled to the bus stop AFTER I point this out. TO THE BUS STOP, SO I CAN WHAT? GET ON THE BUS WITHOUT KENNELS FOR MY PETS BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE OUT AND WALKING WITH ME WHEN I BECAME WAY TOO WEAK TO CONTINUE??!

Customer Service is poor at best. I wont waste time writing the same issues the others here have had. I wrote detailed letters to the hospital during post care survey time and never received a response. I've experienced and seen so much "wrong" with that ER and their other services.. I wont go back unless it is my very last option.

This is the worst hospital I’ve ever had to visit someone at. My sister died in their icu unit just a month ago due to the nurses lack of compassion and heart. Literally videoed them laughing while manually performing cpr on my sister while she gasped for air making a choking noise. 3 nurses to be exact. They were incredibly rude and careless. They treated us, her family terribly the entire time. I had to file a federal lawsuit on them for illegally releasing her body to her boyfriend. Not a husband... read that again. So I had to give my sister’s 3 little girls a service for their 29 year old mommy with no body, no ashes. Please go to a better hospital if a loved one is fighting for their life! She was neglected the entire stay aside from the wonderful care of only 1 special nurse who worked mostly on the second level.

I had my baby there an was there for 3 weeks. My baby had issues because of the medication I was on even though I was told the baby would hardly be affected by it. Well that wasn't true she was affected a lot more then we had hoped but this place took great care of me before discharge an great care of my baby girl. I did have some nurses that made me feel uncomfortable but the other nurses they were more then helpful an helped teach me a few different things. They took care of my baby 24 hours everyday an most of them made me an babies dad feel like we were ok to be there. I truly appreciate the nurses in post partum an special care. Thank you ladies so much for all your help.

Held me against my will. Kept me there for more than 8+ hours then charged me thousands of dollars over checking the substances in my blood. Nurses were rude. Had to get up every time to get what i needed such as a blanket. No one cared or showed any amount of heart or sympathy. Don’t take your loved ones to this hospital. Went in wanting help, went out wanting a lawyer.
