The nursing staff is amazing! I couldn t have asked for better people to support my labor, delivery, and many, many questions with after care!!! They truly have amazing patience and care for their patients. Lauren Z. was truly a blessing during my labor. I had a lot of trouble with the epidural and she was so wonderful about trying to make me comfortable. She was extremely attentive and showed great concern for my care.
The main problems I had during my stay were related to the facility itself. My labor bed was HORRENDOUS and uncomfortable. I was already in a great deal of pain with labor, but that bed did me no favors. Not to mention that one of the labor leg stirrups was broken, but you don t know that until you re about to push. It s a little late then to change our beds.
My husband s sleeping arrangements were awful as well. Poor thing slept very little and uncomfortably as he tried to still be there for me and the baby during this whole process. It would have been nice to have something more appropriate for his stay than that couch.
Finally, we received our first food services option the day AFTER I delivered. I was admitted Thursday morning and didn t have any offer for food until Saturday when I inquired with the staff about it. Luckily I had people coming by and offering to bring food, however, I would think that the food services should be offered 3 times a day unless medically not permitted.
Overall, the staff at Johnston Willis is amazing, but the facility needs some legitimate attention to improve upon areas that should be guaranteed components of a comfortable stay in a hospital.
