Unity Hospital

If I could rate them a zero I would. If they think I am going to pay a bill when I wasn't even seen, they are sadly mistaken.

I'd like to know how many ppl catastrophized their visit "details" to sound worse. I have no doubt well over 50% of the 1 stars aren't accurate. When mad, some ppl make their experience sound as horrible as possible. If your needs are not met in a PERSONAL timeframe, everyone and everything sucks. I waited in the waiting room for a little under two hours - 5pm on Friday evening. There was a total of -10 ppl waiting to be taken back. Waiting time wasn't unreasonable. Don't bug the ppl at the reception desks or the security guards whining about how much longer. NONE OF THEM KNOW! I had a awesomesauce Nurse in the ER, her name was Amy. She was a night shift nurse and was my Nurse for the 7 hours I was in an ER bed. I only had to hit my call button for her ONCE about 20 minutes before I left because I needed to go to the bathroom and needed help. She came in to the room and checked on me regularly, came in w/ updates as soon as she had them, as well as a quick "Hi, need anything?" as she walked by. Every request you have of the nurses is based on need vs want. They are not all a #1 priority - socks, some water, a pillow, and blankets type things are not priorities. The whole ER does not revolve around you and 6+/10 ppl think it does, and is gonna complain so everyone knows it. Amy's bedside manor was amazing. I have some personal struggles. She was kind and handled anything I said, asked about, or started to get visibly upset about w/ understanding and empathy. She was extremely nice to my Dad who was w/ me the whole time. I don't usually have any troubles w/ bloodwork, but last night I did. Who knew anxiety could make that tough! She knew EXACTLY how to handle it. She tried once in three spots, all veins collapsed. Fourth spot, no problem! I never felt like a pincusion! I only have smaller than a dime bruising on the 4th spot where she took multiple vials and bottles. No bruises on the other three spots she tried w/ no luck. The ER has 70 beds. Each nurse has five patients w/ varying needs. When Amy was in the room, I felt cared for. I felt like I mattered. My BP spiked to triple digits over triple digits when I got very upset about the possibility of spending the night for IV fluids and IV antibiotics depending on what my bloodwork results were. She turned off the lights and was familiar w/ yoga breathing (so am I). Even taught me a good portion of the time w/ a anxiety BP spike, switch arms and put cuff on lower part vs the elbow. It's JUST as accurate and sometimes has different results. Maybe three minutes later, my other arm's numbers were very good and the ones that went on my chart, not the BP spike ones. What took the longest was waiting for my bloodwork to come back. It's first come, first serve, not your reason for being in the ER is more important than others. (unless it's a trauma case) All of them came back "lovely!" and -20 minutes later I had all my paperwork, she explained all of it to make sure I understood it, a strong antibiotic, and actual iced water complete w/ bendy straw to drink in the car to make sure it went down because it was the size of a Glucosamine and Chondroitin! I was +85% happy w/ my visit. Only crappy thing was the wait. Otherwise, no complaints. If someone is unhappy w/ ONE THING, everything that comes after it is going to be a complaint and more than likely the worst thing ever to happen to them. Many of these 1 star reviews are foolish and childish. Unity hospital does NOT deserve 2.8!

Terrible service, 0 enter and care. Don't go if its an emergency
