Deaconess Hospital Hospital


The hospital was beautiful, clean and the testing, billing and registration staff were all very helpful. The nursing staff could use a lot of work, especially the aides. My pain pump broke down the first night after surgery and it took hours to get another one. When they finally did, they tried to change the batteries from the old one and discovered it was the batteries all along. I was without pain medication for hours. Finally got the nurse to get a Dr. order for a shot of pain medication. The second night my IV piggy-back was not hooked up properly and leaked all over the floor. There were air bubbles in my IV tubing which concerned me. No one else seemed to be concerned about it. Call light left out of reach 3 times. Floor staff slow to respond.
