    My mother was admitted to Onslow Memorial Hospital in December for hallucinations, confusion, and a fall, resulting in a 10-day stay. She has lung cancer and had completed radiation in October. At admission, she also had a UTI and critically low sodium levels, providing clear medical explanations for her condition. Despite this, providers fixated early on a single lifestyle disclosure, and that assumption seemed to overshadow other documented causes. Nearly every physician repeated the same narrative, even as labs and her medical history pointed elsewhere. Some comments were made in front of others that felt dismissive and inappropriate. Her inability to eat or tolerate sodium supplements was repeatedly documented as refusal, yet the true cause was untreated oral thrush. She made multiple complaints of burning pain in her mouth and throat that went unassessed. I ultimately identified the thrush myself after examining her mouth. Once treated, she resumed eating normally and her sodium levels improved without medication. Unfortunately, the inaccurate documentation remained in her chart and directly led to a rehab facility declining her admission. There is a significant difference between refusing medication and being physically unable to tolerate it due to untreated pain. Basic care was also lacking. She was never bathed with soap and water during her entire stay and was only given wipes. Prolonged time in bed without proper hygiene led to a rash that went unaddressed for days. Her hair became so matted that it had to be cut after discharge. Oral care would not have occurred if I had not provided it myself. I also had to repeatedly advocate for assistance with getting her up and walking to prevent further physical decline. These are fundamental aspects of inpatient care that should not require constant family intervention. After multiple discussions about discharge to a rehab facility, she was unexpectedly sent home with orders for home health PT/OT, but no services were ever initiated or coordinated. While many of the nurses and aides were kind, this hospitalization was marked by assumptions, delayed assessments, inaccurate documentation, and poor follow-through. Significant improvements are needed in basic patient care, provider communication, and physician bedside manner.

    Dried urine on her floor that had run off her bed and walked through by staff and left. Her family cleaned the floor.

    People on this app are crazy. My wife and I went in, and were taken care of with care. They listened, they got us in fast. Clean facility.

    Don't have your baby here. Postpartum nurses were lovely, have nothing good to say about labor and delivery.

    The labor and delivery unit was outstanding and professional and the postpartum ladies were just as nice.

    Looking at the previous negative reviews had me terrified for my 17 year old son. However his…read moreexperience was the complete opposite from day 1 of his admittance I have nothing bad to say. I every day every night! I spoke to him Every single time I called. Unless he was at rec or lunch or therapy! Staff was very professional Patient and kind and that alone brought a calm to this stressful situation! My son was ready to go home but he also said he wouldn't mind staying a few more days it was good for him.

    Awful place. Dr that sees patients is not in person and is virtual. They messed up my kid's…read moremedication schedule which made him not able to sleep. Then they added a medication. The Dr kept trying to tell my kid that he tried to kill himself multiple times (not true). We finally went to the police department per instructions from an attorney. They gave some great insight into how this place works and that they are in trouble with the state for their practices. Per their instructions we then filled out an AMA form while fighting to get him out. When we came to visit he would tell us how he couldn't sleep and about having to go into a small room with all the patients because of a kid losing his marbles every night. He told us that the kids in his room stayed up talking all night and wouldn't let him sleep and nobody did anything to help. Here saw multiple fights and one sent a staff member to hospital.
