Bad hospital by Richard M. at InsiderPages

Contributor at Insider Pages

I came here a few times once to get my tonsills and adenoids removed then to apply for a job here. When I had my T&A done I was much younger then but don't remember anything bad about the place. Now when I went recently to apply it seems like your walking into a time warp. It is a really old facility like from the 50's that has not modernized its interior at all. Everything seems old and like it's falling apart. Pretty depressing just to walk in there. I can't even imagine having to be admitted! Well anyways inside the whole place just smells funny in a bad sort of way. Can't really put my finger on what the smell is. They need to invest in some remodeling and pinesol or air fresheners. Also have not heard very good things about this place from my nursing collegue's at all. Avoid if possible!

PROS: Proximity if you live nearby.

CONS: Bad rep, Bad smells, Bad interior and exterior.

Adminstration........ What's That?

Not everyone should get the blame, but Honestly these people have no idea what it is to work for a hospital.... At a recent stay an elderly gentleman was to stay over for a few days, on the following Monday he was to take a test that consisted the elderly man to relocate to a different hospital in the area.. Monday came along the elderly man was transported by amblulance to the different hospital where his treatment was going to be held never did anyone at the hospital (Palm Springs Hospital) informed my grandmother that my grandfather was going to be discharged, my grandmother not knowing left all her belongings there and left with her husband to palmetto hospital. Later on that Monday afternoon I came over to see how my grandfather was doing.. When i got there i walked into his room to find his things bagged up by the assistant nurse I asked around where my grandfather was and I was told he was discharged. How wrongly informed we were.... After everything They happen to also lose my Grandfather's DENTURES... WHAT AN EXPERIENCE... I DONT RECOMMEND THIS HOSPITAL FOR ANY KIND OF STAY...

P.S. FOOD IN THE CAFETERIA IS GREAT! THOSE ARE THE RUMORS...... LETS KEEP IT THAT WAY !
