I had major surgery on Monday March 19th and will be discharged today the 22nd. My experience here at Sarasota Memorial was not the best, to say the least. Whn I arrived on monday, I was told to arrive at 8:30 am, for my surgery to be performed at 12:30pm . Turned out to be more like 4:00 and OR discharge at 7:00ish. I practically waited the entire day and with no consideration from any staff that I traveled from Orlando for this and had been up since 4:30 am that morning. All processes took too long and after surgery the room I was in had no shower, nurses dont assist in washing you up, so I began to smell like sweat after 4 days of being here. My sheets were never changed, bed never made and the restroom I had to share was not disinfected as much as it should have been. I think they cleaned the restroom with wipes once in that 4 day span. Completely unsanitary. Yesterday, being my last night, my niece was offered a recliner to sleep on after nurses watching her sleep on 2 chairs put together, for 3 days... The hospitality, skill and cleanliness in my opinion is very questionable. I wouldn't return to this hospital if I had to. I felt very uncomfortable especially knowing ai have a financial liability towards this type of care.
