Hood Memorial Hospital

I learned an important lesson. READ the discharge papers before signing. I got home and started reading things that supposedly were asked of me in triage. Nope. Seriously says I "denied using drugs" " denied being in an abusive relationship now or ever". I mean come on! I went in for an x-ray! I would never recommend this hospital to Anyone for any reason. Made the mistake of going back and was treated horribly.

If they need a nurse they intercom ALL the rooms & you will be awakened. Train tracks 2 blocks away and you will be awakened by trains at night. Loud baseball field next door. Noisy when trash taken out. Loud and boisterous staff day and night e.g. time to get up!!! Rude controlling P.T. staff and some nurses. No shower in rooms. Tiny shower down the hall. Bed alarms in other rooms go off all night long!!! Toilets are too low so add an extension and feel the water splash up your butt. No temperature control in rooms!! Old antiquated either too hot or too cold. Food is gross. Mop in the bathroom, don't rinse and use same mop for the rest of your room. Hardly any outlets in room. Can't use walker in small rooms in bathroom. Problems getting pain pills to patients in appropriate time. Need I say more? Oh, some staff are disrespectful.

Horrible! Over FOUR hours with a child, barely were seen at all, and there were only 2 other people in the ER. Many walked out before getting seen. If I had not known a nurse there, we'd still be waiting! Unprofessional, terrible place.

Brought my 3 year old in with possible head injury. Triaged him then sent us to the lobby where we wasted almost an hour before a nurse came to tell us their CT machine was down. Don't understand why it took so long to clue us in on that? Then we were told we needed to drive to another ER. So much time wasted. I've heard multiple reports of this. Maybe they need to invest in new equipment?
