    The ED at this hospital is similiar to healthcare from a third world country.... patients lined up…read morein the hallways, medical equipment all over.... understaffed and very very slow patient care.. if this is what they consider "quality care", i beg to differ! I have come to this hospital 4 times since January advocating for family members who have been ill... same experience every single visit... this place is beyond pathetic... if i could rate it a ZERO, i would but don't have the option....

    I really do not like to leave negative reviews, but I see this as a public service. . My poor…read more84-year-old mother had spinal fusion surgery at Unity. Then she got stuck at McCormick Transitional Care Center at Unity, and wow, what a horrible, horrible experience, the result of which is the need for a second and third even more invasive surgeries to repair the damage she sustained at this facility. First of all, the nursing staff and physician's assistant at McCormick TCC failed miserably to manage my mother's pain. My mom was in absolute agony, crying out for help, with woefully inadequate pain medication. I should not have had to do this, but I repeatedly explained the fragile and traumatic nature of my mom's surgery along with my mom's medical history and efforts at pain management... and I literally begged them to help her. It did no good. They did not increase her meds to appropriate and recommended levels, they did not adequately take care of her bodily needs, nor did they take measures to insure her comfort or safety. She was often left in a soiled bed, crying in pain and humilation. I AM NOT EXAGERATING. The aids would literally ignore her call light and her cries of pain, or simply step in and turn the light off, telling her coldly that she had to wait for help or meds or whatever she needed. In desparation, my mother would try to get up and get to the bathroom on her own. There was no bed alarm, no safety measures in place at all... nothing. And as a result, Mom fell more than once, after spinal fusion surgery!! It was awful, frightening, dangerous and ultimately devastating to her recovery . I told the administrator after the first fall that I felt my mom was NOT SAFE at McCormick, and the administrator assure me she would launch an investigation and make sure this didn't happen again... but it did happen again and again. My mom fell several time, each time she suffered obvious setbacks in what little progress she had made in her recovery. There were at least three falls and "investigations," and yet I would come in and see the aids chatting or hanging out down the hall totally ignoring my mother's call light. Or we would wait more than 30 minutes to an hour for someone to respond after calling for help, and we often had to go get someone to help her. And when the aids finally showed up, many were very rude or unkind to her. Or they would simple step in and turn off her call light, informing her coldly that she would have to wait for her meds or for help getting to the bathroom or whatever. It was awful. My mom was in misery. She felt like she was dying, and we did too. So finally I call her surgeon to inform him of what was going on, and he was NOT happy to hear how his patient was being treated. After the surgeon got involved, the PA did finally relent and increase my mom's pain meds according to her doctor's instructions for a multi-modal pain management approach, which should have been in place from day one. Hence my mom was able to engage in some rehab, but it was too late. The damage was already done, a fracture on the lowermost vertebra. I know it happened at McCormick. I mean, one time my mom fell with an aid standing right there but apparently making no effort to support or help her with the toileting. And another time, she fell so hard that they took her down an xray. We recently did a CT scan with die and her surgeon found a fracture at the lowermost vertebra of the lumbar region. This area should be fused by now, but due to the fracture, the pins are now loose and possibly touching the nerve, which explains her excruciating nerve pain. My mom's fusion surgery has thus failed as a result of the movement and instability cause by the fall and fracture, which is so upsetting. She should be recovered and walking by now all but pain free. But instead she's pretty much confined to her bed and in constant pain. Now my mom must undergo not just one but TWO consecutive surgeries, entering from the front and the back, in order to repair the damage, replace the pins, secure the spine all the way down to the sacrum. This is an even more invasive and brutal surgery than the first one, and I fear she will not survive it. Needless to say we will not be taking her back to Unity Hospital for this surgery. And McCormick Transitional Care Center and/or Park Ridge should be investigated and shut down in my opinion. For we were not the only ones to experience neglect and abuse at this facility. There was one poor lady confined to her wheelchair and kept in the dining area all day everyday. They would not let her go back to her room and lie down because she was "a fall danger" like my mom, and they wanted to keep an eye on her. Sadly, if my mom could have sat in a wheelchair they might of parked her in the dining area too and kept a closer eye on her, but that wasn't an option for after surgery... and i don't believe it's legal to prevent someone from going to their room.

    Overall a reasonable experience. My son broke his arm and they got him comfortable, casted and sent…read moreus home before midnight even though the ER was busy on a Friday night. I think we got there around 2pm. The wait times were not terrible, and the rooms do have individual tvs which was a nice distraction. Towards the end there was a lot of waiting around to get discharged because the ER got busier. There were a variety of teams involved and everyone seemed to communicate and coordinate well. One thing to know is that there are only 2 pediatric ERs in Rochester- so you'll be there with a variety of emergencies happening across the city which could be anything from fevers to broken bones to car accidents and more. I think my son did find it a bit scary. We previously lived in a large metro with smaller hospitals and more localized ERs available, so we went to the local ER for things like broken bones, but the more traumatic types of injuries did not end up at the local ER. The biggest negative for me was the parking situation which is a large garage across a big driveway. When you're in a situation with a crying and injured child, the last thing you want to do is navigate a parking garage. When you pull up in front of the ER, there were only a few temp spots but they were occupied. Also, the parking spots are tight. Maybe they striped the place when cars were smaller or are just trying to pack in as many cars as possible but it was a squeeze to park and then trying to get an injured person out of the vehicle.

    Parent of eating disorder 17 y.o. female and current patient. Lots of misquotes and documentation…read moreof hearse in MyChart--very concerning(!!), staff doesn't speak to both parents and expect the same participation/visitation from dad as they do a mom (dad may visit once or twice during an extended length of stay and that's A-Ok by their standards), lots of criticism to me--mom--the very present and advocating parent supporting daughter at this time. This second admission feels strange, unkind, threatening, ubrupt, and very not supportive to me as a primary parent and caregiver. I wouldn't wish any parent to be in my shoes! The judgement and unpleasantness I have experienced with staff such as Nurse Chrisanne and CCLS Elise on 8th floor south is not okay. Regardless of what I know of my child seems null and void, how much I stand by her and support her, it doesn't count. I am finding to be the scapegoat and villian for advocating for better communication and transparency in a better fashion than what I have experienced. I feel this admission has enabled my child to get MUCH worse and my relationship is tainted with my daughter due to the BS reported in MyChart. She seems to be more flat, an empty shell of a person because a feeding tube is enabling her to not need to eat for herself. Staff is more concerned with policing parents using cell phone for snack time keeping rather than ecouraging and supporting the patient get better by actually eating solids. This place is not nice or comforting. This place feels makes me feel gaslit, upset, overwhelmed, frustrated, misinformed, neglected, misrepresented and unhappy by staff. I am supposed to drop my other kid and work to play Simon Says on their watch and wait around for the next awful MyChart surprise of a nasty message. Awful. So disappointed. Can they make it any worse for a single mom?!?!
