The ER is a hellzone. The staff are boring and slow. It took over 2 hours for me to get an IV after speaking to the doctor. They don t comfort you or check on your needs, LIJ is much better. The Pediatrics is horrible. There s no privacy, just some cheap curtains. No doors. Then they re very cheap and split the tiny rooms, to get to the sink or trash can you have to intrude on the other people next to you. They don t check on you, no privacy, uncomfortable, miserable atmosphere. It s sorta hectic and you don t feel tended too. Don t recommend it. Boring, miserable, I cried for the 8 hours I was there. The nurses don t listen to you and that damn Chinese man can t do an IV right. L.I.J is a much better hospital if you want to feel actually welcomed. I d never go here again. And the ER waiting room is always packed and it s uncomfortable to be in a tight little room with random old people. In LIJ there s a dedicated Pediatrics ER and it gives you a good room for yourself, an actual door, and friendly people that are always asking if you need a blanket or a pillow. Didn t get asked that once here. LIJ is very swift and they re usually very fast. They make time for you. And there s people in Blue Shirts (Child Life) who ask to play games with you, talk to you, hang out, and make you feel more at home. It s a friendly hospital. Do your kid a favor and don t take them here. They ll love LIJ but this place is torture.
