Took my mom to ER yesterday. She was incredibly sick at her stomach as well as terrible cough and side pains. We were there about 6 hours. We never once saw a doctor and not a nurse practitioner either, as far as I could tell. When we left, she was not a single bit better than when we went in. There were a couple times when no one came in the room for probably an hour. I had to go track somebody down for everything when there were tons of nurses standing around in the hallway doing nothing. She was discharged and not given a single cough medicine and she told them multiple times of her drug allergies and they still gave her a medicine she was allergic to, according to her pharmacist. I wouldn't suggest going here as these people have no idea what they're doing and you probably won't even see a real doctor because apparently only nurses work there. Pretty sure she was misdiagnosed as well or at least not fully diagnosed.
My 13 year old son had cut his finger to the bone. His finger was x-rayed and numbed with xylocaine so it could be stitched up. He was asked if he had any pain . He was offered ibuprofen and a lecture was given about the opiod epidemic. He had to be in pain. Only after I got angry did they offer him one pain pill. I will never use this hospital again.
If you’re going to take a loved one to this hospital, then start making out their will. A dear friend of the family who was winning his battle with cancer died here and it wasn’t the disease that took him. He died by suffocating for 24 minutes with family watching on helplessly and an EMT having to force the doctor to intervene. The arrogance of this doctor is so profound I believe he thinks he’s god himself despite his practice clearly saying otherwise. To shut up the EMT, the doctor decided to have a CT scan run on the man’s lungs. The man who had already been butchered at that hospital by a horrendous surgery never had lung problems. The cancer was in his throat. The surgery left him with a section of his colon attached to his esophagus and his stomach being yanked up behind his heart and yet the clever Dr. decided the dying man needed his lungs looked at. It was only until they tried sticking a breathing tube down his throat and were abruptly stopped by a mass of mucous that the problem was found but by then it was too late. Our friend was pronounced brain dead and unnecessarily died 10/21/17 by choking on his own phlegm in Cullman Regional Hospital. Don’t ever take your loved ones here. Heck, don’t even take your enemies here. I’m sincerely hoping legal actions are taken.
I came into the E.R. I've been having blood in my stool. Dr confirmed it was blood in my stool. They drew blood. Did a scan. Then had shift change. Haven't seen a nurse nor have I gotten my results. Four hours after labs and scan and shift change. No I.V. and nothing for pain and nausea.
When getting ready to leave for home after a few days in, the nurse didn't take my IV line out right away, she said she forgotten something and wouldn't be more than a minute... She never returned, 5minutes passed and my arm was swelling by the 10min mark, my arm was three times it's normal size, I got up and went to the nurses station, I forgot to mention, I had buzzed them continually and told them repeatedly what was happening to my arm, I kept getting the just a minute... So, after going to the nurses station and there's like 6 of them standing aground laughing I showed them my arm, and yet no one seemed to care, I got the, someone will be right there AGAIN, needless to say nearly 25minutes all together passed before it was finally taken out and the size of my arm was completely overlooked... Well, since that lovely occasion I've had problems in that arm, oddly enough im having to have this lump now cut out from under my arm, this started after that visit... Btw, I've got pictures, it wouldn't let me post them, but, by golly someone's gonna definitely be seeing them real soon now!
