Park Plaza Hospital Hospital

Overall I was very impressed with this hospital. The qauality of care was, without question, very high. My one gripe deals with the unwillingness of some of the nurses to extend the help I needed to me when I needed it. I honestly think that some of them were intimidated by my size...maybe even fearful that I might fall on them or they might not be able to handle it if I did start to fall. There were times when I was first trying to stand again when there would be two nurses (or a nurse and an aide) standing next to me doing nothing to support me. I would eventually have to say, "Please push on my back to help me stand." or "Please lift under my arm as I stand." and things like that. It was especially frustrating as I tried to roll to my side in bed and needed to have pillows stuffed behind my back to support me. Some acted clueless about this process. On the positive, I had two outstanding nurses and many others that were very good in most respects. I don't want to harp on this one issue, because my overall experience here was very positive. The "Bari-beds" were wonderful, taking me from a laying to an almost standing poostitions withou me having to do anything. They were very helpful in gettting me us and around faster...because the "getting up" is much harder than the "being up".

The staff rocked at this hospital...They were kind and considerate to me the whole time. They got me out of bed and walking soon which I was thankful for the next day. I was blessed with a wonderful caring nursing staff and GREAT SURGEON ..= )

I was in general awe how lenient they were with visitation and how quickly they were to answer the nurses button. And to top it off I received a card signed by my floor caregivers after returning home.

This probably goes with any hospital, But make sure that you have someone to stay with you at all times. The nurses are under staff and if you need anything it helps to have someone right there.

Hospital seemed very organized in the manner in which it is run. Graveyard shift nurses, not very nice at all!

The stay was a good one overall. I would not choose Park Plaza simply as a matter of "MY" taste.

The ICU staff was wonderful. They made my stay as comfortable as possible. When I went to my regular floor, I did have some trouble with a temp. nurse that was there, but once the regular staff nurse came on, everything was fine. They were wonderful.

Well, having never been in the hospital before, everything prior was based on family or visitor of the patient. But, I was pleased. They were quick, cordial, and I felt very qualified. Only problem w/the hospital is that I've had others complain, so the don't seem to be consistent. But, for me... they were awesome.

I truly enjoyed my stay there.
They have a lot of bariatric experince.

My hospital was very good with the exception of one nurse in Training. She caused a lot of discomfort for me on the day of her shift. I would not judge the overall hospital stay on her, because her replacement helped correct her errors.
