My first child was born here Sept.1, worst experience ever. From the unprofessional staff, to the old maternity unit that looks like it's from the 1960's. Will never come back.

Dirty linens
Nurses talking bad about my girlfriend when the door closed behind her very loudly
Air bubbles 6+" that I caught in my girlfriends IV line right before entering her blood stream
No half-way DECENT sleeping accomodations after the C-Section.

My child was born with alot of issues and is in the NICU unit (transferred to RWJ New Brunswick which is a night and day difference) , the last thing I expect is for a hospital to be this unprofessional and treat patients in the way my girlfriend and myself were treated here. This place should be shut down.

Patient Advocates and even supervisors were unhelpful and even said very unprofessional things. AVOID this place

-- I wouldn't give this place a second chance if it was a life or death situation
