I was admitted to the ER last Monday, due to ruptured cysts on my ovaries-- SO PAINFUL! I had been told this ER has a 'bad reputation', but my husband used to work there and assured me it was a good ER. I got there, tons of people, waited forever -- but I will not even complain about that because that is typical in any ER. I was however, shocked by how I was treated by one of nurses. I was sitting and getting my vitals taken by a very nice nurse, who was making polite conversation with me. We got on the topic of my home church, and the other nurse turned quickly to talk to 'my nurse' as if I was not in the room. She spouted, "I've been to that church and I will never go again, etc etc etc' and began to berate my church. Mind you, my nurse asked me where church was, she brought up the conversation- I did not. I apologized to her that she had a bad experience (because who knows what really happened?!) and she continued to berate my church in anger. I do not remember her name, because I was hunched over in AGONY, but she was a little 'thicker set' with long permed bleach blonde hair and a full face of make up. I was appauled at her lack of compassion or care.. and her lack of professionalism. I will NEVER go there again. I would rather drive an hour away for a kind and compassionate nurse during such a vulnerable state.
