This hospital was once a dump however now its an amazing hospital. From my experience I was treated with the upmost respect and awesome service . Starting from the emergency room staff. I thought I would be sitting waiting for at least 4 hrs. Its was about 1 hour and I was called in. Unfortunately I wasn't feeling well, but the nurses and Dr took very good care of me. I had pneumonia didnt even know it. I was treated with the upmost care. From transport to food service, imaging reps to blood work reps , nurses on the floor were all great. Southside has improved a lot. I would recommend this hospital for care.

The hospital was busy but not overly so. I was left in a hallway writhing in pain for about 3 hours. A police officer went and got me a sheet because he thought I looked cold. Nurse did not offer. A port for an IV was put in my arm and then I was just left there for hours. No pain meds. No attention. When I finally got to an er cubicle I was not offered a blanket, socks (I came in on an ambulance and was bare foot), or water. I had to urinate but they would not let me out of the bed so they handed me a bed pan. They did not help me to use it and they never came to take it away. Thankfully my husband put it on the floor. They brought me wet wipes but nothing to dry myself with. I had to use the sheet the officer gave me. I was never offered a blanket but my husband was able to get me one. I was in horrible pain for at least 4 hours. My husband asked for pain meds but was told they couldn't give anything until the doctor came. Finally they were able to give me pain meds. I showed them the port in my left arm and they said I didn't need it and did not know why it was put in. They also gave me a tetanus shot, the site of which is bruised and still swollen and painful. Finally they came to stitch me up. She poured a liquid on my foot. Left for about 10 minutes and then came back and did it again. There was blood all over my foot which they never cleaned. The doctor gave me lidocaine shots and tested the area to see if I could feel anything, which I could not, so she started stitching right away instead of waiting a while to make sure the inside was also numb. I felt every needle poke, threading, and tying and it was extremely painful. She kept telling me not to move and to keep my foot upright. It was so swollen that I could move neither my toes nor my foot but it was impossible not to jerk feeling every single stitch. I don't know why no one was there to hold my foot in the position she needed. When I was finally released they told me to keep it dry for 24 hours and to change the dressing the next day. I could not walk so we asked for a wheelchair. They did not help me in to the chair and told my husband that they do not wheel the patients out. He would have to do it himself. Then I asked how I was supposed to walk and they asked if I wanted crutches. I said I did. They asked me my height so they could adjust them. When I went to use them they were dangerously too short and I almost fell several times until someone we knew adjusted them properly. We arrived at about 10:30 and were not released until around 4 am. I went to my doctor who told me they did not do a great job but he did not think it was worth redoing. He asked me if the wound was irrigated on the inside once the lidocaine was given. I do not think it was because they started stitching immediately. He completely cleaned my foot, including all the dried blood that the hospital never cleaned, and redressed the wound. Also said not to get it wet. Terrible experience. We have a house in Fire island. If anything happens again I will never go back there. I wish they had taken me to Good Samaritan.

After I inquired what it means, I was told the system is down, 3 hours. "This is normal" I inquired this is head trauma, does she have a brain bleed and we're waiting 3 hours for results? "On no they replied, we'd know that almost immediately, they'd call down" of so my daughter is fine? From what we know they reply. they continue, "we are just waiting on the paper work.

0/0, drive to Southshore. My tiny older adult mother was brought here from Sunrise west Babylon…read more(though our documented preferred hospital is Southshore, Sunrise stated they have a relationship here) and boy oh boy are we having fun! 6 hours after arriving her arm is wrapped from the extravasion (I get it, it happens but when she's telling you it hurts look at the damn thing) and bruises so bad from failed venipuncture they are black! Not to mention completely ignoring her extensive previous work up and negative test results that would have kept her out of isolation (which the pulmonologist told us was unnecessary) but don't worry guys!!! The infectious disease doctor that never saw her, never spoke to family, and has zero clue about her EXTENSIVE medical history decided it was medically necessary. Wild since she has multiple negative cultures, a negative test result that was necessary for her to get into Sunrise just last week, a chest X-ray from 2 weeks ago (from the rehab facility she spent a month in) that DID NOT PLACE her in isolation but an absolute stranger decided it was necessary. Sounds legit. "She will get the same care" complete bullshit, anyone with the ability to Google can review the evidence about patients in isolation and their standard of care and outcomes. Just disgraceful. She called me because she was on her call light for an hour and was literally screaming "Help me, I need help" and no one came......I had to call the hospital to get someone in the room. She wants to sign out AMA but Sunrise is stating she can not come back without being appropriately discharged (they had no problem accepting her and her check just 6 days prior after she met all their criteria but all of a sudden WHOA) No one can provide me any evidence that she authorized sharing of her medical information with anyone at sunrise which is a wild HIPPA violatio they will scream they are justified ("we reach out to everyone's home when they leave AMA" that's when you just know they are lying and you get mad because no we never actually do that). They have removed her autonomy which is shameful. Tried to request a transfer which they won't facilitate because they can provide the same care which is NOT TRUE if she was sent to a hospital that can access her medical history she would be receiving significantly better care (that's just me using my damn logical brain!). NEVER again. This is a failure of the health care system in action. Poor continuation of care creates poor patient outcomes. When Dr's choose ego and "policy" over science and test results people suffer. We have given them more power than they deserve. Do better for your family member than we have done for ours in and GO ELSEWHERE if you value autonomy and choice. Also don't forget to file a formal complaint with NYS dept of Health and Medicare/Medicaid if you have issues with a hospitalized patient. Even better if you have evidence of erroneous billing/duplicate tests Always, and I mean ALWAYS request an itemized bill!! UPDATE: I have just been informed by Kristen, nurse supervisor, that even though I am my mother's designated healthcare proxy, though my mother has requested they speak to me about her medical care because it becomes confusing , they will no longer be sharing information with me. I also learned they haven't started cultures that would determine my mother's need for isolation. Been there for 36 hrs and has been isolation for over 24. UPDATE: admin has advised everyone to not speak with family (literally not legal to deny a patient the option to appoint a proxy which she has). Their Infectious Disease Dr. has stated isolation not necessary (pending seeing the results I faxed to Getty the case manager that were given to Diana the charge nurse this morning). UPDATE: day 2 of Dr. Thomas refusing to speak to designated documented patient proxy as my mother has requested over and over. Mother demonstrated her inability to follow information provided and does not remember speaking to the Dr today. They continue to deny her right of having a legally assigned proxy.

Brunswick Hospital had my name misspelled and had literally told me I was wrong about my name and medical history. NYU which sent me to Brunswick and had initiated the misspelling had told me I had never been a patient in NY hospitals before. Both hospitals found out this was wrong but neither of them told me, changed my name band, updated my records, or acted any differently. In fact, staff at Brunswick kept calling me by the wrong name and I had no choice but to agree that was my name. The social worker at Brunswick maintained I had no health issues or health insurance, which is really odd given that they xeroxed my health insurance card on admission. Can you imagine psychiatrists and others telling you that your name is not your name and your medical history is not your medical history? The nurse at Good Samaritan asked if I had been to Good Sam before. While the answer was yes, I said I don't know because of the above. She gave me a name band with my name spelled correctly. I showed her my name band from Brunswick with the misspelling and I told her there was an issue with my name and its spelling. I think I even told her I couldn't be the person named on the Good Samaritan name band and showed her the "correct" spelling from Brunswick because I was feeling very stuck as I had been told I was not that person by NYU and Brunswick. I was later informed that it is not Good Sam's job to inform another hospital of instances like this where another hospital's nameband does not match the patient and the patient discusses it. I was given Benadryl for the allergic reaction and the Benadryl made me quite delusional. I was not delusional when I got to Good Sam but was after the Benadryl. I was also back to sane before they sent me back to Brunswick. Brunswick's nursing staff left me alone at Good Sam after a few hours and so Good Sam's staff absolutely knew when I was delusional and when I was not. They should have noticed that I was delusional only when under the influence of Benadryl and should have had questions. They did not. I was informed this is not their job as they are not psychiatrists. I was futher informed that they had no reason to suspect anticholinergic toxicity despite my having had multiple symptoms of it - in fact, they found rationale for why each of those symptoms should have been overlooked. Good Sam sent me back to Brunswick with at least one of Good Sam's nurses knowing my Brunswick name band had an incorrect name on it and my saying there was an issue. I say at least one but chances are it was far more than one. Good Sam should have told Brunswick to correct my name and tell me that there had been a glitch, that people made a mistake, and that they knew I was who I had said I was and that my medical records had been found. They also missed the extremely clear issue of what was causing me to be "mad as a hatter," and many other things. Upon receiving my complaints, Good Sam did tell me that Brunswick sent over paperwork that had a sticker with the correct spelling of my name placed over the original printed incorrect spelling of my name. They sent me back to Brunswick with papers that had the correct spelling of my name but I was literally never given those papers. This is literally the craziest story ever. I Good Sam is perhaps a minor player here but they could have done something and they missed a medical diagnosis.
