If the ability to not give any stars were an option, that is exactly what I would give the Emergency Unit of this hospital. My Mom went in after a face first fall on a concrete sidewalk. The ER doctor took x-rays and confirmed that she had broken her jaw in 2 places and needed stiches. They then told her that due to the nature of the breaks there was nothing further they could do and that she would need to heal on her own, but they recommended she see the plastic surgeon on Monday. What a HUGE disappointment she had when the plastic surgeon informed her 3 DAYS later that she should have been admitted for immediate surgery. As a result of her injuries, said he had to have 2 plates and 26 screws inserted into her jaw to begin the healing process as well as have her jaw wired shut for three weeks. I am not from that area (I live out of state), but if I were on my death bed, I would STILL request to be transferred to Burlington or Albany for treatment.
