Mainland Morgue is what we refer to it as. We have finally had enough. Emergency room visit in October 2018. Allison F. with "Charge Nurse" on her name tag blew my vein out and also damaged a nerve in my left arm. I yelled the F word and I didnt even know that word was in my vocabulary. I still have pain in that arm and it's been over 2 months. Even the slightest touch to my wrist bone is painful. I've never had trouble being stuck for IVs or having blood drawn. Her bedside manner was very cold. I went and retrieved my medical records. So many things that were input were not true. Including the most important one which was "patient was better before she left" and "patient was given discharge instructions ". Completely false. I've given this ER chance after chance hoping it will get better and that's just not the case. I will now be taking that extra 5-10 minute drive up 45N to get the care that I deserve. On a positive note the guy that came and got me to take me to have a CAT scan was excellent. Treated me as a patient should be. I have so many other unbelievable poor experiences here that I have kept to myself truly hoping for improvement. Unfortunately nothing has changed.
Side note this hospital is not worthy of having Dr Siller practice there. Hes a top notch orthopedic Dr.
UPDATE I had to go the ER again and chose to be taken to Clear Lake Regional. I ended up being admitted and the care there was excellent! The nurses and doctors were so nice. The place was clean and I felt safe there. You dont walk down the hallway and hear an abundance of beeps from machines or nurse call buttons being ignored. Mainland is the worst at ignoring those. Its been that way for years. I believe that Clear Lake Regional is now tied in with Mainland somehow. So sad, not sure what they were thinking. Two totally different enviornments, clientele, cleanliness, concern about your care etc. So happy I've made this change.
