The nurses often seem indifferent or dismissive, making my mom feel unheard, and at times, it's as if they assume she's exaggerating. They hook her up and disappear, often huddled together rather than attending to patients. The doctor takes a long time to arrive, and it lacks the compassionate care you'd expect. I strongly encourage hospital leadership--HR or administration--to investigate this department and ensure patients are treated with the respect and attention they deserve.

Wauchula Hospital is the Best! Our 84 year old dad fell and shattered his leg. Wauchula hospital…read moretook great care of him. The Nurses, CNA's, Therapists, Food service all were attentive, kind and compassionate to my dad. It was almost like being with family. One of the Therapists knew my dad liked Bluegrass music and after his shift played my dad a couple of songs on the guitar. It totally made his day! The food service lady talked with dad about local stores and a few people they both knew. The Nurses and CNA's would just stop by to say hello when they were assigned to other rooms. They helped us by practicing with us getting dad in and out of the car. We needed to know the correct way to do this! The Doctor and other staff were also so caring and helpful. We could not have asked for a better experience. We highly appreciate and recommend Wauchula Hospital!

Angelica took me through security and onto Jennifer, the concierge, in almost no time. Jennifer already knew my name and had paperwork in hand, and with that, she showed me my next stop with Dana who knew exactly why I was there and told me that the wait wouldn't be long, and she was right. No sooner did she say that than Rod, the person who was doing the ultrasounds that day, was introducing himself and telling me how easy the procedure would be. He made it so :) The hospital is immaculate, the staff are the BEST EVER, and I am so grateful to have access to such a wonderful hospital! Just want to say thank you to Angelica, Jennifer, Dana, and to Rod who made me feel like I was in good hands at HCA.

Absolutely wonderful hospital. I was looking at some of the reviews of this hospital and I'm…read morecompletely shocked at some of the ratings. I'll start by saying they have valet parking when you come to this hospital for regular visit or for ER visit I had to go to the ER Thought I was having a heart attack or stroke. They got me immediately back ran a ton of test for two days kept me for observation overnight. It was a complete team approach and I was very very very impressed. The other time that I was at this hospital was recently when my friends daughter gave birth. The entire process the entire team did a fantastic job. Communication was amazing. Their procedures and policies were very modern and up-to-date. After the birth and in the room, the baby never left the room or the mother side or should I say site they had a lot of educational resources and made sure that the Mom understood many things about being a mother what to do in the early days, taking care of a baby. There was a lot of education a lot of communication and a real desire to help the mom take care of the baby the way, the mom wanted to have things done. They were very respectful and very attentive. I could go on and on and on, but after having experience in other hospitals, I can't say this is absolutely the best hospital I've ever been in a reserved service from.

The ER has a lot of regulations that don't really make sense - for example they have to push you in a wheel chair even if you are able to walk! I wasn't a big fan on that. It did take a bit of time for a Dr to read the results of the scan and follow up, but I was provided with some sandwiches and a nurse checked in on me. The level of care was fairly quick and professional and I had full confidence in the medical team. I was impressed. They took a copay and have not heard anything more about billing (yet).

Shortly after a specialist had come in and gave his diagnosis, I was kept informed and attended to. That is where the tables turn .......i layed there in the ER for twelve hours from 5:00 am to 5:00 pm waiting to be admitted and brought up to a room. Little did I know it was down here from there. After several days and missed medications and drugs I did not want it came down to where they would not release me until I told them I needed to see a legal representative from the hospital NOW. I was released shortly after thereafter and it has taken me nearly a week to recover physically and emotionally from the ill treatment I endured at this facility. It's hard to believe that in this day and age that this shoddy treatment of patients exists. I have spoken to several people that also have horrible experiences at this facility.
