North Florida Regional Medical Center Hospital

I had a private room so I had privacy;the nurses were great and very attentive;spent 4 days and only had 2 instances where I had a long wait for assitance but once they got to me they took care of me right away and apologized for my wait.

The nursing staff was great. They were helpful and knew alot about the bariatric patients needs. I just wish they had more private rooms available.

I have only had my pre-op test here. This hospital is one of the best for organization and helpfulness. I never saw anything like it. I hope my hospital stay is as good.

The nurses on the bariatric floor were so nice and attentive to my needs. They seemed to understand the needs of a bariatric surgery patient and never made me feel uncomfortable.

I would not hesitate to return for what ever reason.

I think overall the medical staff was adequate but there were certainly some that could use some lessons in tact and dealing with obese people. There were some excellent staff members and for them ill appreciate their efforts.

I would like to ay thanks to Renee in CCU
for being so caring.

I was on the 3rd floor and it was dirty. The floors were nasty, they were installing a new sprinkler system on that floor and one night, the plumbing went out and they sent maintenace into our rooms at 3 a.m. to fix it! Workers were in the hall installing the sprinkler system and watching as we took our walks in the hall. It was embarassing. There was obviously a shortage on nurses and they were not very compassionate. There was also a definate hiarchy (spelling?) among the RN's, LPN's, and Med Tech.'s. Don't ask the RN to help you to the bathroom. There was one great nurse, Evelyn. She was helpful and very nice. I didn't have a private room either (there was a shortage on beds, period!) so that was a nightmare. I felt sorry for the woman in my room, but it was obvious she preferred yelling for the nurse rather than using the call button. I mostly couldn't get over how dirty that 3rd floor felt. The rest of the hospital wasn't that way, so not sure what the problem was.

i hated it, i would ring the button for help and a half hour later they would call me back on the intercom. i was choking on flem and called and called and called and still no one would come so i picked up the phone and called the operator to the hospital and she rushed some people in there. to make it worse i was about 12 feet from the nurses station.... it was a horrible experience for me. and i dont reccomend them if at all possible. but i love my surgeon he was awesome.

Over all rating of a 9 on a rating of a one to ten. Everything from the pre-surgery testing to the check in, surgery, and check out was exceptionally fast and efficient. I highly recommend this hospital.
