Laury C. for Rhode Island Hospital

They did a wonderful job of personalizing my care in both ICU, where all post-op bariatric patients go and on the regular floor. I was given assigned to a pain specialist's care when my pain was not under control in 8 hours, most of which I was sedated for. I felt the staff truly cared about me.

Dale P. for Rhode Island Hospital

The anesthesia guy was great and the OR team supportive. The nurses in the step down unit were terrific but it was very noisey in the room. When I went to cooperative care there were some wonderful nursing assistants and a sonderful 11-7 nurse. On my 2nd post op day no one checked on me for over 4 hours and I waited almost an hour for a pain med. The bariatric beds were difficult to get into but easy to get out of. The room was nice and it was quieter on the co-op.I don not think many of the staff were familiar with the beds. The PT staff was wonderful. Overall a decent job by the hospital.

I feel the care was excellent. The nurses were great except for a couple and they know who they are. It takes dedication to be a good nurse not just going to college and having the intials after your name. Its all in how a nurse cares for her patients and how she treats them. Like human beings and treated as they would want to be. The doctors were all great and Im overall very satisfied with the CoOp care too.

Tammy M. for Rhode Island Hospital

The nursing and doctor staff was so wonderful to me during my stay.. They were very sincere and caring to me.. I felt so good knowing that they were all so caring.. I had a lot of different nurses and not one of them were rude from the doctors to the therapist who was also great to me....This is a huge surgery and it goes by so much more smoothly with people like that....

Megan B. for Rhode Island Hospital

Overall I had some wonderful nurses with the exception of one mean night nurse. I was left in the 'step down' unit for an extra day due to a bed shortage in the Coop building and that sucked. I had a little curtained off area right next to the nurses station. There was a wonderful nurse who went to bat for me to get moved to a regular room and I owe her my sanity for that. Thank you Nurse Becky!! Most of the nurses knew what they were talking about with gastric patients but not that one mean night nurse who didn't want to give me pain meds and woke me up all night to do the breathing machine because she said I couldn't go home on pain meds or without reaching 2000 on the breathing machine. All that was crap. I went home with liquid Vicodin and the respitory tech said it took her a year (without surgery) to get that machine to 2000, never mind someone like me with asthma. If it wasn't for that nurse and being left an extra day in step down I would have nothing but good things to say about the hospital.

The nurses I had were amazing. I never felt alone, they were always there when I needed them. Kellie, one of the nurses, made me feel like I was a guest in her home. It was very nice.

I was very happy with my care at RIH; the nurses take care of the WLS patients repeatedly and now what to expect and how to care for the patients.

the hospital was very good but needed to change its outlook on obese people and how to respond to their needs.

the rooms in the co-op building are great as are the beds for the gastric bypass patients.
