The nurses were excellent but Epworth only cares for money - over $1k per night for a tiny tiny 4 bed ward, and they charge you for a 3 night minimum, no matter how long you stay.

The woman who was right next to me was throwing up and retching all night long, and whenever the nurse saw I was awake, she would ask if everything was ok. I couldn't say "no, I cannot sleep because of the noise so close to me", because it wasn't the poor woman's fault, it was the hospital's. They should not have put her in a 4 bed ward as she was often crying out in pain. It could not have been good for her recovery, nor that of the other people crammed into the room with her.
