Munroe Regional (COE) Hospital
The evening nurses were responsive to my needs, but the hospital is short handed, I was in a semi private room and I was fortunate enough that my mother was allowed to stay, she handled most everything, my walks, my ice chips, making sure I had my meds ect .. she was not supposed to stay but my family had left her with me unknowingly and she had no way back to Jacksonville, so the night nurses turned their heads, but it worked out in both our favor as they were not having to keep close contact with me and my mother did 99% of what they would have had to do. The day shift was the worse .. can hear them ordering breakfast from my room even after I asked for pain meds and took them almost half an hour and most likely would have taken longer but my mom went and requested that they need to get me the pain meds .. all in all .. take someone if you can .. it will make your stay so much more comfortable.
From check in to check out everyone was very friendly and helpful. I had some amazing nurses (especially Charlotte, Steve, and Tammy) and when I needed help or anything they always were on hand. Despite a bad experience of losing my iv line, everything went well. My mom and husband raved the treatment I received, and I do the same.
The night shift rocks!!! They were right there with anything I need. The day shift SUCKED, I was bleeding from my incision when I went down for my leak test and it was all over my gown. I told someone when I got back and then 2 hours later (after my husband gave them a piece of his mind) someone finally came to check it. That was the worst thing that happened, the rest of the stay was ok.
