UPMC did no favors to the community by taking over the old Washington Hospital. Nursing is terrible now, and doctors are worse. Any quality staff has left long ago. Their hospital medical staff does not affiliate with UPMC, they are a private entity for profit group, whose company went bankrupt years ago yet still operates. Thats why the hospital and ER have horrible care, most of their staff dont live in or care about the community. For a community hospital, its also a surprisingly hostile and cold environment. Something is very wrong here. Run, dont walk, away. Choose another system, AHN or WVU Medicine. read more

Got here at 6:15 pm and still sitting here waiting to be seen at 11:27 pm. The 92 year old lady sitting next to me has been here since 5:00 pm and she's also waiting. I can't express myself enough when I say this place is an absolute joke!! Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. JOKE!!!!! read more

The people are rude and stuck up who work here. I overheard two employees laughing in triage over my pain and struggle. They offered to do my bloodwork in the waiting room. Horrible service! Been waiting 3 hours and there is only 3 other people waiting to be seen read more

had to pay a $1300+ co-pay before any services were performed. Insurance actually covered all but $500, leaving the hospital owing me more than $800. check your EOB (explaination of benefits) from your insurer. If I did not catch this, the hospital may have kept the money read more

I wish I could leave no stars at all - this was the worse day of my life. I was called early morning December 1, 2021 by an ER Doctor Gaudio who told me my husband had arrived there from Transitions Washington via ambulance. He told me people had been working on him for some time and then he said "Karen, Louis is Dead". That's all he said to me. What the hell do you call that? There is a much nicer way to say that and everyone I say that to says how awful he is. I only I never have to go to your hospital you don't seem to have one person that has any feelings there. read more

Just this morning on Sunday, December 13th I experienced my first crash. Hopefully it's my last. I'm lucky to be alive, as my bus crashed and flipped over completely with glass and terror being felt everywhere. Im in the hospital now after having had x-rays and as I wait, I feel eager to let people know how amazing this ER is. Not too long after the crash, the EMTs from Washington Hospital arrived. They were thorough in asking each person from the bus if they were ok, had any injuries and wanted to see a doctor. It was clear they were organized as everyone got a green, yellow, red or black ribbon. Each color represented a persons status (ok, mildly injured, severely injured or dead/about to die). And no, no one passed away. Ambulances were at the ready and for those who were badly bruised, like me, had heavy lavender blankets given to them for warmth and protection. Our luggage was either underneath the bus or tossed around so you got out of the bus with whatever you were wearing. EMTs were friendly and took their job seriously. They were approachable and very calm as they helped. One could say that's any hospital but their kindness and sincerity was palpable. For those of us who were ok, the ambulances offered to take anyone to the hospital to wait indoors in one of the family rooms. Upon arrival, the ER seemed relatively peaceful but everyone was on high alert as people from "the crash" kept coming in. We got water and the nurse came in asking how everyone was and if we changed our minds we could still be seen. Adrenaline subsiding and PTSD and mild pain setting in, I decided not to chance it so I was seen immediately. I was taken to a room with a clear sliding door - unlike others where you're completely exposed or with one curtain departing you from everyone else. I was quickly registered and multiple people came in to confirm my story and check on how I was feeling. Questions were repeated to check my progress. Shortly after I was taken to a freezing room, on my bed, to have an x-ray. My results came back in less than five minutes and I was given a WARM blanket. The blanket was literally warm as if it came straight out of the dryer. Worth noting the material was fairly soft and decent for a hospital. As of now, the hospitalists (as they're called) keep checking on me. All of them are friendly, somewhat casual (gum chewing..) but concerned. It was all so comforting. One of them talked about their training and they just completed a bus crash drill. Just in time. I hope to never be back but, I encourage those who live in this area of PA to not hesitate to come here. It'll be a smart decision and one they surely won't regret. read more

The Washington Hospital - From the bed looking out - Hospitals Near Me - Washington, Pennsylvania

worst experience ever, I went into labor and delivery thinking my water mightve broke and had the "doctor" accuse me of drinking and doing drugs and held my legs down because I was shaking my legs and being visably uncomfortable. what a fucking joke you people are. read more

Hands down the worst hospital I've ever been too, wait times are above 3 hrs everytime I go there. I get attitude from employees for asking simple questions. If there was an award for the worst way to run a hospital these idiots would take home gold and it wouldn't even be close. read more

LONG POST ALERT!! I went to the Washington Hospital yesterday at 1:22 & sat there over 7 hours with rib pain, chest pain, & shortness of breath. They forgot me 3 different times in the emergency room. Due to that fact, I NEVER even got a bed within the whole 7+ hour stay there. I had to keep constantly going to the front and asking them whats going on. Everyone that was there before me was seen as well as at least 4-5 people after me. When I first got there after waiting in the waiting room for almost an hour I was finally called back to speak in one of the check in rooms at the er. I waited in there to speak to a nurse for 40+ minutes in which time another employee walked past and seen I was still in there and went and found the nurse to come do her job. After that I was put back out in the waiting room for another 5+ hours. Finally get called back again thinking I'm finally getting something done, just to be left in another check in room at the er for another hour. A gentleman finally came in and said let me go find someone the doctor arrives only for the doctor to ask the same question & stilll no help. He told me he would order bloodwork and then blatantly told me I had an attitude because I wasn't happy go lucky & told him they forgot about me! NOBODY would be happy and cherry but I would never disrespect someone that's trying to help me, so I politely told him do not excuse people of having attitudes when I've meet you for 5 seconds and have been in pain for 5 hours atp. He was rude and condescending with absolute no bed side manner. Again this was all in the emergency room they NEVER even got me a bed. So after his remarks he said he'd order blood work and I should be on my way. That was at about 6:15 ish - almost 7:00 rolls around still no blood works and still in the room because they FORGOT AGAIN. I go to the front and tell them I'm checking myself out explain to the receptionist everything that has happened. She calls the head nurse out "the one who left me there 40 + minutes initially" and she couldn't even believe I was still there & not only that. That I still had NO bloodwork after 6 hours or a room . The doctor never called anyone for bloodwork so I wasted another hour for NOTHING. Finally get the bloodwork after almost 7 hours of being there. And all they could say is we apologize. Avoid The Washington Hospital at all cost!! They don't care about people's health, and are honestly going to end up killing somone because their complete lack of competence. The entire place needs shut down. Micah Miles. P.s. after leaving there with no confidence in anything they said I went to @st clair and received excellent care and treatment all within 2 hours. read more

Waiting for over two hours in the ER is ludicrous. It's an EMERGENCY. Absolutely HORRIBLE.

I tried to get care from the Washington Health System back in May but was turned away because of covid concerns even though I had a negative test and I am vaccinated. (turns out that I had Lyme's disease). To Washington Hospital's credit, I later received phone calls and letters from Hospital administration apologizing for the lack of care I received and promising it would never happen again and that they would change their training and have discussions with their staff. Great, I thought, but I've moved on to a different health system. However, NOW I am getting billed for the "care" I received which was basically keep taking a fever reducer (104 deg temp) and let's see if it gets better. The gall to bill for not taking care of me! They already received monies from my insurance company but now they want me to pay a copay. Luckily, I went to Canonsburg hospital where I got the care I should have gotten from WHS. Pathetic, they don't care about patients, they aren't hero's, they are money grubbing careless health "workers". read more

If zero stars where an option, that's what they would get. My wife came in after a wrought iron post was caught in her ring and sliced into her finger. Luckily, she was level headed enough to pull her ring off before the swelling got too bad. After a 3 1/2 hour wait in the waiting room, the Dr. came in, told her to run her finger under the faucet and then, without sterilizing the wound, placed glue on it. Two days later we noticed puss underneath the glue. We then went to MedExpress where they removed the glue and properly cleaned out the wound. They ended up pulling a large amount of black paint, from the fencing, out. Obviously, Washington Hospital couldn't be bothered to do so. MedExpress then cut the dead skin from over top of it and informed us that if the infection went to the knuckle, she could lose the entire finger. She ended up having rehab to gain the mobility back in her finger. All of this could have been avoided had Washington Hospital taken a few minutes to properly clean and care for the wound. All it takes is a little care and attention. If you're looking for mediocre, careless, health care and you enjoy being treated like cattle, this is the Hospital for you. Kudos to MedExpress though... read more

On September 1, 2017, my husband presented to the ER of Washington Hospital with chest pain and nausea. He was immediately taken to an appropriate room for assessment which included IV placement, ecg and pain management. Within minutes of his arrival, he went into full blown cardiac arrest. Within seconds, he was intubated and CPR was initiated. After 25 minutes of CPR and 15 defibrillations, he was resuscitated. When stabilized he went to the cath lab which had a full staff waiting for him. He had 2 stents placed in his right coronary artery. From the cath lab, he went to the ICU where he received excellent care. He was discharged to home 4 days later walking upright with no neurological deficits. He is still doing quite well all things considered. I still cry when I think about that day. I know that God answered our prayers and saved his life but these people were absolutely amazing. I have worked in a major university hospital for over 30 years and I have never seen a team operate like the ones who were in the ER on the night that my husband went there. I am so amazed and so grateful for their incredible, knowledge and care for him. I know that he is alive today because God used them to save him. I will always recommend this hospital for care. read more

I had surgery for a Thyroid nodule on Jan. 9, 2019. I was very happy with the entire experience. I was told to check-in at 11:00 a.m. At precisely 11:00 a nurse came to take me back to the area to get me ready for the procedure. The staff was excellent & very caring. I would definitely recommend this facility. read more

They somehow were able to open the blockage to her lungs and is resting peacefully. Your good work is not gone unnoticed Thank you And God Bless read more
