Saline Memorial Hospital

Avoid if you can. They lie about tests, transfers, and medical treatment throughout your stay. They seek out those who cannot defend for themselves (because the doctors, nurses, APNs, and techs will lie). I have gone to an ER twice in my life. These people treat you like scum of the earth. Should you upset them, they discover a way to hospitalize you for simply being responsible for your own actions.

I don't say this as an angry individual--i just don't want ANYONE to experience this. I hurt for anyone who suffered through this system.

The hospital is not that great and not alot people here to help. No one was at information desk nor in the main lobby. Due to the location it is needed and medical help is provided here but some the people that worked here where friendly. We visited here to see a relative that was hospitalized and needed treatment. Some of the staff was on a break so there was reasons why personal wasnt present. The facility needs a up keep or a remodel and needs more on hands personal. The front shop is really nice and the some what pleasant Christmas tree needed more decorating. However, there are areas to eat and enjoy cafeteria in the main entrance.

My 89-year-old grandfather was not treated with either the dignity or respect he deserves while changing the bladder incontinence pads on his hospital bed. The nurse just walked into the room without knocking, didn't even say who she was, she just walked over to my grandfather and flipped back his sheets and his gown right there in front of all of us. Then she looked at his incontinence pad and announced to the whole room, "It's wet!"

This hospital did absolutely nothing for my girlfriends condition even though she was told to see a doctor, she left with subpar treatment, no explanation what to do next, and with no relief. She had xrays and a cat scan even though they were not needed, which led the hospital staff to contradict what she had been told by her previous medical visit to a dentist. All in all, they charged us for test that were not needed, contradicted another medical professional, and did not treat her or give her any relief.

I went into the ER Thursday evening because my blood sugar levels were way high. The ER nurse did a great job explaining everything to us ended up on inselin drops they put me in ICU to monitor me all night into Friday afternoon all the nurses did an amazing job taking care of me. They put me on the 5th floor all the nurses did awesome job taking care of me. I want to thank this hospital and all nurses for saving my life before it was to late because I almost ended up in a diabetic comma and so glad I didn't. I got released from hospital yesterday and doing much better. And a big thanks to my wonderful fiance who took me and was there for me. I can't thank these nurses and doctors enough but thank you so much keep up the great work in all of you and may God Bless y'all. Amanda Caple Amy Harris keep up the great work they took the time to talk to me about my diabetes and Amy helped me with my inselin shots. Very friendly people and staff.
