Geary Community Hospital Hospital
I haven't had surgery yet, but with having my sister go through it here and having my pre-op here. What I have seen so far is just excellence. Above board quality people, and quality facility. Very caring. What I like is that it isn't a big hospital. So, when you see the staff in the hall or cafeteria they remember you and ask how you are or in my case they asked how my sister was doing. So, I feel extremely comfortable and confident in this hospital.~
Okay, now I have had my surgery. I am still espousing the virtues of this hospital. It is clean, the staff and volunteers are friendly, the gift shop is quaint, and the hospital is just so well equipped with updated equipment. Not to mention that the hospital does cater to the larger person. I've read on this site where a lot of doctors offices don't have scales that go beyond 350. Well, that is ridiculous. They have scales that would weigh anyone I would imagine. They also have oversized wheel chairs and oversized chairs. So, whether you are a patient or a guest they make sure you are comfortable. I highly recommend this hospital for anyone thinking of having the surgery.
As a nurse I noticed a few things they could have done better but the lay person would not notice these. Overall the care was very good. One thing they could improve on is to coordinate their nighttime chores and come in together to get them done instead of waking me up every 30-45 min for each individual chore, ie. vital signs, finger stick blood sugars, assessments, etc.
