My uncle received poor treatment by the nurse he was assigned. His nurse Nikki, on the 3rd floor, did not show any concern when I informed her that my uncle's stomach was swollen. This is something she should have noticed on her own with him being of small stature. She pretended as if she would scan his stomach to see if his bladder was emptying but she never came back. Another nurse came in to do the scan and found that the content in his bladder was above what the machine could measure. She inserted a catheter which relieved some of his discomfort. I was really thankful to the 2nd nurse but his nurse should have been the one to take care of him. This is very disturbing and poor care. We will go to UMC next time!
