Kayla Cashman Review of Cheshire Medical Center
I'm officially done with this hospital.
I'm officially done with this hospital.
1. The ER blatantly ignored a confirmed case of pyelonephritis the first visit and dismissed my pain and dehydration and I had to return a day and a half later.
2. It took them three days to figure out that the reason I wasnt fully popping positive for a uti/renal infection was because of the initial antibiotic treatment on monday. Did they not read any of the notes prior to this?
3. The hospitalists english is terrible and is now telling me that the meds I am on for my anxiety and depression are not nessecary and are making my Eds symptoms worse... ( excuse me, what? They have nothing to do with one another )
4. The patient I had initially been stuck with has had violent outbursts in the past. WHY WAS I PUT WITH THIS PATIENT WITH THEM KNOWING SHE HAD DONE THIS?!. She apparently stabbed her husband. When I called them out about this I was told that she was old and I needed to understand that people's minds go and they "lose it" as they age. She needs to be in a psych ward. Not stuck with other sick patients.
5. Patient advocates take the complaints and make you feel stupid for making them and consistently stand up for their doctors and nurses even when they are blatantly wrong.
6. It took them an hour and a half to bring me an ice pack and heating pad for my knee and side respectively. They couldn't even pop the heating pad for me so it would activate.
7. One of the nurses were anti iv med and would push me to take medication I was vomiting up. I had to complain to another nurse. She spent the rest of her shift taking her dear sweet time getting me the med out of spite.
8. I get home and check my CT results. They failed to tell me that they found Heart Disease. I would think that that is VERY important.
At this point I will only come here for orthopedics and physical therapy.
