My experience in L&D was not a pleasant one. I was directly admitted from my OB because I was in active labor. Went to HRMC and waited AT LEAST an hour in the waiting room before they took me back, because they were "waiting for a bed to be cleaned." I get that they are very busy on their L&D ward, however don't take back a pregnant woman getting induced who's not in labor, before ME who was almost 7 centimeters and clearly in excruciating pain. Once they finally took me back no one could get an IV in me (never had this happen). I am a nurse and IVS are a basic skill okay. I requested someone else to try and they finally got it in an hour later. I was begging for an epidural but it was too late to get it because of all the waiting I had to do. One of the nurses wore a bandana and damn was she just a snotty thing the whole time! Very rude and condescending. Linda and the pregnant nurse were the only caring ones I encountered who actually had some empathy for me and did all they could to make me comfortable..
Mother baby unit was a totally different experience. Just simply amazing from when I got there until I left. Every single nurse, CNA, Dr, housekeeping, just amazing! They made me feel so comfortable and that family snack area was just awesome!!
