The bedside manner of a number of nurses employed for the VA Hospital are less than desirable at this establishment. My dad has been staying here the last few days and his current room shares a bathroom. I needed to utilize the facility in order to urinate and I was walked in on by the nurse. In a really irritated tone she LOUDLY (enough for my elderly/hard of hearing father to clearly hear) chastised me on the policy regarding visitors only using the public restrooms/patients only in the room(s). I was so humiliated and ashamed I left in tears. Aside from having to constantly remind them to change his bandages, clothes, etc. is in and of itself horrible when it comes to the nursing care but the plain MANNERS of those that I have interacted with are just disgusting. I expected so much better for those that administer care to our veterans and their families, how sad.
