visited ER. Took me right in where I sit back for two hours before anyone visited except insurance computer woman..then a nurse came in with HER computer then left. Doctor came in about an hour later, spent exactly two minutes thirty-eight seconds (my wife was timing) nodded a lot, then left after ordering some blood work and x-ray. All seemed norman so I was advised to see my doctor on Monday. My bill after insurance, was almost $800.00 for physician fee. I called complaint line and they said management would investigate, received a letter about a month later saying, they had indeed 'investigated, informed physician of my displeasure and that they were sorry they had not met with my expectations. End of story in their world, I guess. I WILL be following up on Monday with an attorney.....

CARED FOR WITH 99.9% TLC BY NRH STAFF FOR 26 YEARS [as of 2008]....



ONLY ONE BAD HAPPENING WAS NOT BY NRH, BUT BY DR ANDERSON [FOOT DR] BRACING UP MY LEG IN FEB 06 AFTER FRACTURED FEMUR. BRACED WRONG AND NOW I AM TOTALLY BEDBOUND, BECAUSE I AM UNABLE TO DO WHEELCHAIR TRANSFERS LIKE I DID FOR 30 YEARS PREVIOUS TO HIS BAD JUDGEMENT. MY HIP AND LEFT FOOT ARE TURNED SIDEWAYS FROM LAYING WRONG FOR 8 WEEKS.



I HAVE BEEN IN AND OUT OF NRH AND NSH FREQUENTLY SINCE GETTING PRESSURE SORES WHILE STILL BRACED WRONG. UTIs, AND OTHER HEALTH ISSUES HAVE ALL BEEN CARED FOR THERE TOO... WITH GREAT RESULTS. THE NRH STAFF [FROM DRs, NURSES, NAs, HOUSEKEEPING, MAINTENANCE, ADMITTING, EMSTAT, FIREFIGHTERS, ETC.] IN ALL MY OTHER VISITS HAVE BEEN GREAT....



I THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TLC
