    I have such mixed feelings I originally went in for an iron infusion and showed the wonderful nurses there that my leg was swelling. Reviewed it did a couple blood test and took me straight over to emergency. I have a history of pulmonary embolism so I was treated appropriately and I felt Safe and informed throughout the admission to hospital. Stayed the night and woke up to a Divine intervention. You know who you are. Went for CT scan which was scheduled at 1045 and I was in and prepped by 1100. Very impressive. Drop off and pick up were spot on. Never left in hallway. Here's where it falls apart. I wasn't in my room when the Dr came on rounds. When I returned to my room I was told I was discharged! I thought that was great because the CT scan must've been clear. I was then told I have a PE. It was in a new area than previously. I asked to speak to the doctor about management asI wasn't comfortable going home. I was at St Pauls last year for 6 days in order to have IV anti coagulants and "clot busters"?After speaking with the doctor i expressed my concern to my nurse who then escalated it to a patient liaison or something. She was so aggressive when she met me and told me I have to leave now because I was discharged and they won't reverse it. If I wanted to be seen again I had to start over regi again at emergency. I was feeling to demoralized to bother. She dismissed me by offering a taxi voucher and yes I accepted it cause I hadn't planned on leaving so abruptly therefore no chariot awaiting me. Here's the kicker @ 1:30 am I had to go to emergency at VGH for severe pain in the leg with dvt. But that's another story. Check it out soon. You won't believe it...or maybe you will.

    Really happy so far with what I've seen at this smaller community hospital where I had to take my old dad. Arrived at emergency on advice from his Dr. and had no wait at all on a Friday afternoon. Staff were friendly and attentive and we moved right along. Lots of attention from various people and immediate action on his blocked bladder and swollen feet n legs. Enough with the details but suffice it to say that two days later he's gonna make it! After moving to a regular ward, he's sharing a room but has enough privacy and room to squeeze in a few visitors. Meals are adequate and on time. There's a cafeteria but it's not open all the time so bring your own food supplies. His hospital Dr. has been calling me daily with updates and keeping me informed of how long he expects to stay. They really seem to care and it's comforting. Read the other reviews and you'll see that it's way different than the BIG hospitals. More personal and friendly.

Good luck finding a pillow in an emergency bed! The walls and furniture have holes in them and maintenance can't keep up. Their H-Vac system was last updated in 1971 and can't be upped anyfurther so it's FREEZING in there. Good luck finding anyone to get you a blanket to put around you. Staff, nurses and doctors are overworked and grumpy. Provicence pays their ER docs per turn around so you don't get to see one for very long. I have several health issues, none of them my own fault, and St. P.'s is the closest hospital to me. I cannot always be diverted to Mt. St. Josephs so have to put up with this hell hole of a hospital. I won't talk about the food because that's too cliqued. I'm almost in tears if I have to go there!

Had to return to emergency. Lay on gurney for hours, no pillow offered, no water offered and no doctor ever attended. After waiting hours, I checked myself out. Week later I returned to emergency and did get a bed in palliative care. Conditions are terrible. Due to construction of the new hospital, there is much neglect in the Burrard Street hospital. Nighttime is freezing, nurses are wearing bed quilts around their shoulders. Patients are bundled up with a hooded jacket and quilts to keep warm. Conditions are not ideal for patients that need special care and attention. I hope because of the lack of upgrading and support in the Burrard location we don't have a similar situation that is happening in Alberta where patients are dying waiting in emergency rooms for medical attention.

This information is relevant to them as workers, union members, and residents, particularly with the 2026 HEU Convention approaching. If this post isn't of interest to you, please feel free to scroll past. The mission of HEUBC.CA and the HEUBC Facebook Group is to promote transparency, accountability, and open discussion among HEU members. One of our goals is to encourage HEU to remain politically neutral and independent of provincial political parties so it can represent all members equally, regardless of their political beliefs. Over the years, HEU has directed millions of dollars of members' dues toward political activities and support for the BCNDP. We believe members deserve greater transparency and accountability regarding those expenditures and that union resources should first and foremost be focused on representing the members who pay the dues. HEU Members: Please Help Spread the Word Over the past several weeks, HEUBC.CA has been completely reorganized and expanded to become a central resource for HEU members preparing for the 2026 HEU Convention. The website now includes: Top 5 Constitutional Amendments Convention 2026 information Ratification Court Case updates and court documents Election Tampering information from the 2024 Convention HEU Leadership & Staff Compensation Political Action Spending analysis Public Health Order information Legislative proposals to improve transparency and accountability Financial analysis and much more. We have also added a "Start Here" section so members can quickly find the information most important to them.

Whether you're a care aide, clerk, porter, tradesperson, housekeeper, food service worker, technician, or any other HEU member, you are welcome to participate. Unlike some discussion groups, members can post questions, ideas, and concerns without waiting for someone to approve every post. All HEU-related topics are welcome for respectful discussion. The goal is to give members a place to exchange information, ask questions, and have open conversations about the issues affecting our union. Together, the HEUBC Facebook Group and HEUBC.CA can become invaluable resources during bargaining, Convention, elections, and other important union matters by giving members access to information, documents, and different perspectives before decisions are made.

The "Diamond" center houses the outpatient offices for most of the VGH medical specialists and speciality clinics. ATRIUM AND MAIN FLOOR: The outpatient bloodwork station is located on the main floor. So if you need some tests done, look for it near the door facing Laurel street. There is a large auditorium on the main floor. The main floor also houses eateries including Salad Loop, Starbucks coffee, Zookaaz coffee (and sandwiches) and a Sushi bar. There is also a Shoppers Drug Mart and a medical equipment store. The atrium has many tables and benches both inside and out. God forbid you need it, but the security office is also on the main floor. Finally there are two sets of elevators: one set to the parking below and another set to all the floors above. OTHER FLOORS: the second floor houses the UBC medical library as well as a multitude of educational meeting rooms, study tables, and video conferencing rooms. The fourth houses the VCH research institute clinical research unit. The top floors are UBC medicine administration offices and more meeting rooms. The remainder are clinic spaces for specialists and their patients. The waiting rooms are all very open, clean, and since the building is mostly glass, there are good views and lots of light in all patient waiting areas.

It is currently spearheading the "Bright Future" campaign to raise funds for the $1.8 billion Burnaby Hospital Redevelopment Project--the largest capital project in Burnaby's history. The Bold Vision: Redevelopment Project & Fundraising Goals The redevelopment is a multi-phase project designed to completely transform the aging facility into a modern Campus of Care that will serve the community for generations. Comprehensive Community Care Burnaby Hospital provides full-scope acute care services for all members of the community, including seniors, adults, and children (pediatrics). The modernization is crucial for delivering quality care in an optimal environment, especially for: * Emergency Services: Addressing the severe overcrowding in the current Emergency Department, which was designed for 54,000 annual visits but sees over 83,000. * Specialized Units: Including new Intensive Care, Medical Imaging, Inpatient Oncology, and Cardiac Telemetry Departments. * Mental Health: Introducing a new, dedicated Mental Health and Substance Use Inpatient Unit. Key Fundraising Event: Annual Gala Dinner The Burnaby Hospital Foundation's Annual Gala is one of its most important fundraising events, bringing together community leaders, corporate partners and supporters. * Event: 12th Annual Gala (Tentative) Date: November 7, 2025 Location: Delta Hotel Burnaby, 4331 Dominion Street, Burnaby, BC Purpose: The evening features a cocktail reception, multi-course meal, live entertainment, and a live auction, with all proceeds supporting the Bright Future Redevelopment Campaign.

For the most part, the nurses were nice (except for this one nurse that seems to be all over the place with organizations).

All and all, while my stay wasn't terrible, but my only criticism here is: 1) make sure your fruits aren't moldy (got a serving of moldy grapes once and makes me wonder if other patients noticed it)... seriously this could've gone sideways for the hospital QUICK.... 2) Upgrade your hospital's electrical system because my room and the adjacent rooms just wasn't able to handle the amount of electricity needed for the AC because of the slight heat wave we had during the first weekend we were there (8th till 11th). It kept tripping the circuit breaker due to the sheer amount of power. This could've gone quite wrong very fast depending on the circumstances. Sure this happened in the older building but that's still no excuse. The only reason why I'm giving this place 2 stars instead of 1 is because of the nurses I kept seeing that for the most part were pretty friendly (guess I'm lucky given some of the other reviews).
