It is now 5 months post-delivery of my daughter, and I am clear headed enough to write a review worth reading. Most of the nursing staff on the L&D unit was less than helpful to my husband and I as we embarked on the journey of delivering our first child. I will say the triage nurse was excellent. She really advocated to get me admitted and was very supportive to me, a woman about to become a first time mother, who was full of anxiety. The next set of nurses, though pleasant, appeared to have the knowledge of a high school aged kid working for the first time. They didn't have any confident answers to our questions, and even told us information that we found to be incorrect after researching online, or the doctor coming in to tell us something different. Once the baby was born, it got worse. We were not told about being able to order food until our discharge day, so my husband was going out for three meals per day buying us food at local fast food joints, or rummaging through the nourishment room for snacks. The first night, the nurse asked repeatedly to take the baby away so I could rest. Little did she understand, that I wanted my baby with me, and for her to stop coming in every hour asking ridiculous questions. I can t tell you how many times she came in, waking us up, to ask if the baby had fed or peed in the last hour. The next day takes the cake when the nurse mentioned the need for a Rhogam injection due to my negative blood type for my future divorce along with my next pregnancy by another man. Not only is this question irrelevant as I am no longer pregnant, but extremely inappropriate to suggest I may get a divorce and become pregnant by another man as I hold my baby that is 12 hours old. I was floored, and in my sleepless stupor was unable to respond with what I should have said. This woman should be penalized for such a comment. Needless to say, we were ready to go. However, when the time for discharge came, the nurse handed me the paperwork and immediately asked if I had any questions It was quite difficult to have any questions for information that was not given. Last but not least, the hospital got my daughter s name wrong so when I received her birth certificate and social security card in the mail, I was faced with the task of getting it all fixed. Shouldn t this information be reviewed with parents before submission to avoid such an error? I expect much more!
