text: I was just in the hospital Banner nDesert Medical Center recently thru due to an emergency Getting checked in thru ER was fine then the nightmare was to start I am checked out then sent to ultra sound Mind you there was one person in the room and by the time about hr later the room was full and not moving I saw many associates bringing lunch in etc but when I scheduled business we would make sure things were covered like it never changed While waiting for a room my heart was in afib witch that is not why I was there During my stay all the nurses just did not seem to care I would call a nurse for assistance they would answer on the intercom they would be right in and or so hrs later you might get lucky I am on many pain meds for fibromialgia RA and many more ailments and when ever they see any medical center you are automatic a drug Addict and denied my meds I eventually went thru detox which was not good for my heart i had celulitus and was in fear in getting mursa or the flesh eating desease which we are still monitoring at home thank god I am home You know the food was probably good but when I am sick I just cannot see eating spicy foods so I could not eat for days my Husband would bring me yogart to eat the med asst was walking around the room and I look down and on his foot he had a huge wad of black hair from a previous patient so what does that tell you I just about thru up This Hospital was so filthy I could not believe it if you touch anything there was either black crap or crunchy stuff on the trays I finally asked for some wipes to clean my area up Due to the neglect of the nurses not answering the page I guess I decided to check out oh ya one of the aids came in the room and found me blue dead in bed and they had to revive me I am only and should not be dieing this young I feel it was neglect Out of all the shifts I went thru the only efficient nurses were the crisis crew and a Filipino Gal yr veteran there and the nurses aid Deanna they worked on the th floor night shift Sunday very very efficient and they deserve a medal grant id i am a hard patient to work with at times but not that difficult hospital stunk so bad my sister ordered flowers that smelled good to cover up the smell what is with that I have dogs and my house does not even smell like dog and with my disabilities I am not able to keep up as well as i would like I finally was able to take a shower after asking numerous times and if you want you sheets changed you actually have to ask to sum it up you need to watch where your hands touch uggg I hate doing this but it needs to be addressed for the board members I do not think they would want to stay in that place If so i would like to see their homes and how clean they are Thank You for letting me have a platform to vent and hopefully fix it Pam Pierson
