Just a rant: I swear I would gladly live in a town with no hospital than to go to the hospital in
our town!
This is my wife's town so I have not lived here more than our marriage so I can't speak to care and treatment for when the town had to hospitals BUT this hospital that is now in this town is a danger!
My wife went to see an ex- client of hers for there traditional monthly movie day. The client's new care attendant has had a headache for 4 days. He explained to my wife he went to the hospital for help. They wanted to do a spinal tap thinking meningitis. They poked this guy 9 times. He lifted his shirt to show my wife and she said it was creepy looking. The hospital did that too him last night when they failed to get they gave him a shot of something and sent him home.
He went back to the hospital ( while my wife was with the client) and the hospital told them they could refer him to a pain management specialists.
He came back to the client's house and to call a friend to take him to a nearby town's hospital.
My wife was really concerned about the attempted spinal taps. She stressed to him to tell the hospital he goes to about the 9 spinal tap.
But the reason why I am venting is that I can't CAN'T believe a hospital as bad as this town's hospital is still in business.
I have told my wife and she has told me anytime we need to go to a hospital we avoid that place at all cost.
