Question:
I want to compare hospital experiences

I know there is room on this site for experiences with doctors, but what about the hospitals. My experience recently was horrible and I was wondering if we should share any info in that department so that others soon to have surgery in the same facilities can know just what to prepare for. : )    — Tres J.

Hi Tres: My hospital experience was TERRIBLE! As an RN I think I have a lot of patience while I'm a patient, because I know how things can be. But an hour and a half to answer a call bell? And not getting me out of bed for more than 24 hours after wls? Very very poor nursing care. I hope no one else has this experience! Jaye

Hi, Tres--I would really like to hear about your hospital experience. I had surgery 7 months ago in Pensacola and had a great experience--please write back! Good luck--

Hi Tres, me too like you had a really I MEAN really bad hospital experience.... the nurses were awful I am a medical assistant and would never expect this from a nurse!I was treated terrible....I too waited over an hour to go to the bath room several times I finaly said to my self "you have to do it alone because they really just wasn't there for me" I would take a shower alone! because I couldn't clean my self after useing the toilet! I had bed rash on my bottom that was so sore and before I was allowed to take a shower I had 1 Bed bath my sheets were changed only once! "I was in for six days" so much more but I think you get the picture! needless to say I made sure someone acknowledged this situation but unfortunatly not untill my awful stay was over with.......anyone want to know more feel free to ask. Good Luck Ann
