After four weeks of attempting to coordinate care with Genesis Home Medical, I have decided to…read moredisengage entirely. Following the submission of my referral, I received a text message a week later stating that my records were under review and that I would receive a follow-up call to schedule an appointment. That call never came. When I followed up myself, I was informed that scheduling could not proceed without the complete records from a sleep study conducted over two decades ago. This requirement is not only unreasonable but also profoundly out of touch with the realities of long-term medical care. In the 20+ years since I received my CPAP, not a single provider--whether physician, home health company, or insurance--has required those records, or EVEN asked to check the machine. Expecting a patient to retrieve documentation from a defunct sleep center or from physicians whose practices have changed hands and locations multiple times, especially from an era when electronic medical records were barely in use, reflects a disturbing lack of flexibility and common sense. This experience demonstrated a clear failure in communication, accountability, and patient-centered care. I would strongly advise others to seek alternatives.

NOW, I would absolutely hate to be someone walking into the ER with ANY issue (I've always ended up going by ambulance rig for ER visits) that should have prompt attention. Tonight I witnessed first hand how an ER can be run so piss poorly, that I would choose to drive 30 miles to a podunk hospital than ho to Trinity Rock Island as a walk in patient. A 40 year old male presenting with left side abdominal pains just below the ribcage, low grade fever, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, panic attacks, loss of appetite, vomiting blood, chest tightness, b/p of 158/98 at 180 lbs pulse of 100bpm, and fainting spells sits for 30 minutes when there are only 4 others waiting and an empty parking lot showing that there is no way that in an ER with atleast 20 bed could be full. The receptionist, who is lucky I missed her name tag or I'd call and raise hell tomorrow with their HR, was rude as hell. When taken in for triage to find out the chief complaints of the patient (I went in as a witness), patient was handed a specimen cup and told that if he was able to fill it once he was sent BACK to the waiting room, that would help speed up his waiting time, he filled it after another 10 minutes in the waiting room and passed it to the desk woman. After another 45 minutes he was called back for blood draws. Sent back out to wait again, and an hour later he decided to go to a smaller hospital half an hour away the following day, and just be in pain that night. He was wrong for leaving, but when you feel like absolute crap, you're in pain, haven't been able to eat, or sleep well, for 2-3 months, explain it to someone and get nothing in return, your anger can take over and you do counterproductive things. I'd rather be beaten half to death with a bag full of rocks than have to walk into that ER. Ambulance rides rule there.

I got my nurse right away and she took me to a private room, did some vitals and asked why I was there. She really listened to what I said. I then waited for the doctor to come in. Although it took an hour and a half for him to show, the nurse checked on my a couple time making sure I was okay. Doctor really listened to my needs and talked me through the next steps I would need to take in the morning. Overall a great experience (for an ER trip)! I wish I would have started here rather than the university ER!

My husband walked out on his own when he became frustrated while the nurse was trying to scan his wrist band and bottle of meds that were to be given every hour. nurse told my husband she would be back every hour to do this. it never happened so she was trying to scan the medicine and his wrist band for all those hours that he did it himself. totally unacceptabl. worst hospital we have ever been to. Unless you absolutely can't make it anywhere else avoid this hospital. Not one person was kind or caring. My husband was transferred there from Muscatine where got great care for what they were able to do. Rude Rude Rude staff.
