Ocala Regional Medical Center (COE) Hospital
I was told I would get a private room but did not end up with one....I live 2 hrs away so was concerned my mom & husband would not be able to stay with me but the nurses were great and let them stay...I had 2 OUTSTANDING NURSES...Andy is an angel and Dianne was a blessing...one of the tech made me very nervous though she almost pulled my IV out while changing my gown...watch out for Nidia...overall it was a great team effort...
I only had one delay in asking for pain meds--was 45 minutes but felt like hours. But they were very busy at that time, too. I think it was around shift change that I needed it. Other than that, I think that they were more than accomodating. I had a private room which was great. I was able to get all of my tubes out and hook ups off by the next morning so I was free to get up and walk, which I tried to do. The discharge process was great. Pre-op instructions and support were great. Overall, I think they did a great job. They are accustomed to this surgery and it shows.
