What do you dislike about the hopsital?
I haven’t been much in the hospital but from my recent experience I really got bored. My family had to pay too much for parking. I would say free parking for family and visitors. Rooms without neighbors so that there isn’t any bathroom sharing. The food isn’t healthy at all and for the nightly price you pay it should be better.
From my expirience I enjoy the amount of attention the staff pays to my condition. How they work in teams to select the best treatment for me. They hear my concerns and don’t discriminate if I refuse medicine for pain they will try what’s best for me. If you ask questions , they will answer and if you aren’t clear they will explain. If a family member has concern and would like to see results, X-rays or whatever it is provided.
Well because the hospital has become my second home let's just say I think I now hate just having to go to hospital. I am a regular there. I hate the food, the environment and just being generally down. But I still appreciate the very good treatment I get although I have to sometimes force doctors to listen to me. By the time I leave hospital, I have no space left for injections so I am so sore when I get home. Still I am grateful. 😊
