The CHI Bergan hospital had many great staff members we worked with, but noticed as a whole, they…read moresometimes prioritize patient discharge over their well-being. My mother broke her femur in a fall at her assisted living facility. The doctors and surgical team were awesome, but she was abruptly informed of her discharge shortly after the operation. I left to get her clothes, but when I returned, she was on the stretcher in her hospital gown with her rear end exposed, which was disrespectful to her. The discharging physician also prescribed TYLENOL for pain relief for her still technically broken femur that had just undergone an intense surgery. This drugstore medication seemed inappropriate and raised concerns about staff training and awareness of levels of necessary care. Bergan Hospital has positive qualities, but some staff definitely need better training to ensure proper patient care and dignity.

I am deeply disappointed by the lack of ethical process and safeguards in the care of my father…read moreduring a life-and-death decision. Life-prolonging treatments were stopped and my father was placed on comfort-only care without a documented decision-making capacity evaluation, without documentation of his expressed wishes, and without an ethics consult, despite clear family disagreement. Critical decisions were made based solely on direction from his spouse (POA), even though no physician had formally documented that my father was incompetent to participate in his own care. At no point was there a structured attempt to ensure that this decision aligned with my father's wishes at the time, nor was there a neutral ethics review to guide the team through an extremely complex and emotionally charged situation. Instead, sedation was increased, antibiotics and fluids were stopped, and the course toward death was allowed to proceed without adequate procedural safeguards. This experience left our family feeling that the process prioritized expediency and avoidance of conflict over ethical diligence, transparency, and patient autonomy. Regardless of outcome, families deserve confidence that every appropriate step was taken to ensure decisions are made with, not merely for, the patient. I hope this facility reviews its end-of-life protocols to ensure that future families are not left questioning whether proper ethical standards were followed at the most critical moment of their loved one's life.

I think I've spent 4months or so total time admitted to the place. Maybe more. 99% of the time I get spectacular service and treatment from amazing doctors. Have only had 1 absolute terrible experience with the ultra sound department. That catastrophe alone is why I took a star away. Several cafes, gift shops, cafeterias, and little bodega-type shops are around the entire hospital. Free valet parking. Amazing people. Beautiful artwork and one beyond-awesome garden area full of blown glass art. Going to the hospital to see that area is worth a trip, even if you don't 'need' to be in the hospital. I live in South Sioux City, NE; two hours away. And I have incredibly easy access to health care in my town and Sioux City, IA. But, I come down to Omaha for my major health needs. That's how good this place is. I'm thankful for the doctors here that literally have saved my life. More than once.

I was left in a patient room for hours with no explanation of what or who I was waiting for. When the Doctor finally arrived he introduced himself only by his first name, corrected my husband when he tried to call him a Doctor and said to call him by his name and rolled his eyes the whole time I was speaking to him. He listened to my complaint and then proceded to argue with me about the symantics of what my PC told me to report. He than said he would prescribe antibiotics and left never to return. Hours later someone from "HMS" showed up and said she was admitting me. That was the last time I saw her. I was admitted for a large kidney stone. Once I got to my room the nursing staff informed me that my surgery couldn't be scheduled because no one had told the urologist that I was there. It took another 6 hours for a urologist to be assigned to my case and my surgery was finally scheduled 22 hours after I arrived. I didn't see another doctor until I was in preop. The urologist was very professional and has a good bedside manner. He explained everything to me including the timeline, post surgery, that I could go home. The surgery went well. However, back in my room I was once again approached by another woman from "HMS" who told me I would not be going home. When I asked her for an explanation she could not give me one. It was only when I asked for a supervisor that I was allowed to leave. This ordeal took a total of 31 hours most of which I spent sitting and waiting with no information. When I was finally permitted to leave they began to shove medical supplies into my bags saying I should take them because I paid for them and if i didn't they would just throw them away, whether or not they had been used.

So off I went to Nebraska Medicine Bellevue ER, wrist in pain and dignity slightly bruised. From check-in to cast, I was in and out in under two hours--yes, TWO hours. I've waited longer for brunch. The staff was incredibly professional, warm, and genuinely funny. We even shared a few laughs about my skating mishap (because hey, if you can't laugh at yourself while getting X-rays, when can you?). I got triaged, X-rayed, casted, and sent on my way with a smile--and a very stylish hard cast. The quality of care was top-notch--thorough, efficient, and delivered with kindness and humor. Every single person I encountered made me feel seen, heard, and well taken care of. I've never had such a smooth, friendly ER experience. Seriously impressed. Thank you to the whole team--you turned a painful twist into a surprisingly great experience. Well, as great as a broken wrist can be!

The nursing staff on the recovery floor were eager to help us learn how to take care of our first baby, as we are pretty much clueless! And, and many people noted to us, the food was very good. The only recommendation I would have is for some more proactive accommodations for the dads/support people who stay with the new mom and baby. Totally get that the mom and baby are the patients, but little things like having two towels in the bathroom instead of one, would go a long way in making their extended stay easier too.

It still hurts and I feel she may have pierced into the wrong spot in my hand. Then at the end of it all she tells me that she mainly works as a headache specialist and does "this stuff" (nerve work) on the side. The only plus side from my visit was the people at the front desk were very pleasant and kind to everyone but other than that the rest of my visit to the neurological institute of this hospital was a mess.
