5 /5 Desiree McConnell: I don’t know about all the facilities the hospital offers but I can say that the staff who has taken care of my 92 year old grandfather have been exceptional. My grandpa was admitted with a uti that became septic and the doctors and nurses got him stable. He is on palliative care and has been treated with so much kindness, respect and nurturing. As the family members it means so much to know when we leave at night that he is being looked after so well. The kindness of the staff did not end with my grandfather. They’ve been so good to my grandma and the rest of us. They bring us drinks and chat with us. A special thank you to the Isaac and Carol for always going above and beyond for grandpa. Taking the extra time needed to feed him and wash him up daily has made him feel comfortable. Much thanks to the head nurse for running a tight ship on the 3rd floor. Cathy makes the time to answer any and all questions. The physical therapist Karen has been not only gentle with my grandpa but also with us when explaining what we can expect. The palliative nurse, Elizabeth looked into all options and broke them down for us with kindness and professionalism. The care workers and have also been informative and helpful. Grandpas patient advocate, Amber, has sat down with us as well and made sure all needs were met. We honestly couldn’t have asked for better care anywhere else. I hope that people take the time to appreciate those in the medical field who handle themselves professionally and bring the medical care needed for those in need. It can be easy at times to forget all that goes in to taking care of the ill, especially during stressful situations. However, we need to show our gratitude when it is deserved.
