Munroe Regional (COE) Hospital
When I had my GB done on 02/19/05, I always said if anything happened to me, this is the hospital where I would want to be. In Oct. 2006, I wasn't feeling well and after being at the Fl Hosp. I went to Ocala from Orlando and checked in there.Some nurses were still there, some even remembered me; everyone there is great. They take care of you, they pamper you, they are patient. 6th Floor(Surgery) staff is great!!
I felt that the hospital looked after all of my needs. Yes, I am partial but as an employee I felt that the people there respected my wishes of keeping this surgery private. My wishes were respected. The nursing care from the patient care technicians, radiology department, the surgery department to the nurses was excellent. I never wanted for pain medications or anything. My father and a friend was with me and were very impressed with the care that I recieved. Even from the individuals that didn' t realize I worked there. My friend stated that you could tell that the feelings were genuine.
I felt like EVERYone was compassionate about my size and took good care of me. The day time nurses and techs were all friendly but they seemed to be spread thin based on all the patients being awake and needing attention. I was not unhappy just thought they could have used more help. The night time nurses and techs were awesome, they were right there when I needed something and were also very friendly. My family and I were very impressed with the care given, the large private rooms, the beautiful grounds and the wonderful staff. I highly recommend this hospital to anyone who has a choice! From the time I walked in until the time I was wheeled out, I was given a 5 star treatment, as an obese person that is usually not the case. I was very pleased with Munroe Regional!
