Lack of communication at has been a continuous issue through hospitalizations of 4 family members. How in the world in this day and age does a computer system in Emergency NOT be able to transfer patient info seamlessly to the floors above when transferring a patient to a room??!!! Even staff to staff communication is less than stellar, we educated staff today again with the transfer of my mother in law from icu to a floor- her brain surgeon had taken her off all pain and sedation meds Monday except per patient request and then start with Tylenol because she gets so out of it on Percocets etc.......stopped in her room, nurse had just given her Percs for pain vs a Tylenol- BECAUSE she had NO script for Tylenol........even though the track record was there from ICU decisions!!!!! Gets tiring educating every doc and nurse, each shift, different on weekends too.......that this was a vibrant 83 yr old whom only wants to get back to her activities. I could do a long list on all of them.
