I was recently hospitalized here for five days I had two surgeries during the second one they skipped a procedure and tried to claim it was not scheduled even though I signed consent for it in pre-op when I come to in post op the pain in my biceps was unreal (I had reconstructive surgery on my leg) they placed IVs in both arms right at the bend of my arm and left them there for the entire stay severe damage to the muscle from continuous medicine being admin when I voiced my concerns they ignored me I asked to be transferred to another facility they refused I asked for a wheelchair to be able to move around get fresh air they said they couldn't find one that there were not any on my floor and there was only one walker for the entire floor so I couldn't leave my bed and when I insisted they let me out they kicked me out said I was given advice against it but they didn't all they did was round up my belongings and wheeled me to the street corner in a chair that couldn't be operated by the patient and I was naked but for a gown and left on the street corner in the cold at midnight and told good luck I would not recommend anyone go to this hospital for any reason there are far better hospitals just across state...
