Was here almost a week. Everyone was telling me different things. They denied me even water this entire time. Most of the nurses were nice, but I encountered one, and I have NO idea how she still has her job. He name was Maria in the surgery and recovery unit. Rude, and extremely lazy. Left me unhooked from my IV for an hour (to take a personal phone call, and forgot), caused a vein to blow, which resulted in my entire vein coming out with my IV when it was changed, and got upset when I requested my meds, because she was never on time. That isnt even the half of it. Asked the head nurse not to assign this horrible lady to me if she was there the following day, but not to make a big deal of it. The rude nurse found out about it, and thats when she really showed herself. Disrespected not only me, but my visitors, mocked my mother, showed sarcasm, and the ability to be a smart alic in front of my son, cause she had knew I made a complaint, that was supposed to be confidential. When the disrespect started, I told her she could stop, but she wanted the last word, and would not stop. I asked her numerous times to just leave, and she would rather mouth off, and make things worse. The hospital staff did NOTHING of her behavior. She even called me out of my name, and insinuated I was a drug addict, because I requested my pain meds she was trying to avoid giving me, although ordered by the doctor. From the moment she was disrespectful, I refused all meds, and pretended I was in no pain, and felt 100% times better even though I didnt, because it was the only way I was going to be released. You should feel comfortable when you are admitted into the hospital, not to be to feel like garbage, and mistreated by the people who are there to help. I will die before I go back to this hospital for anything. As much as I enjoyed the other nurses, one bad apple spoils the bunch, and I can not comprehend how she could treat a patient this way and have no repercussions. Patients are definitely not their top priority at this hospital. She seemed more fit working in the cafeteria than to be dealing with patients.

Took my 1 year old son to the emergency room. Didnt take long to get seen but when I did get seen they were quick and acted like I was a bother and was interrupting them. They miss diagnosed my son. What it was that my son was bleeding out of his ear and he has tubes the ent said his tube fell out and the bleeding was normal didnt prescribe anything just said to put a cotton ball in it and let it do its thing. I went back to the medcheck a couple days later and told them that his ear is still bleeding and it hurts and said what the emergency ent said. The medcheck doc looked in his ear that was bleeding and his tube didnt fall out but its infected and he needed to be seen by an ent. I took him to his appointment back at hospital on second floor and he was diagnosed with a polyp forming on his tube and thats what is causing the blood the ent prescribed him steroid ear drops to shrink the polyp but come to find out the doctor obviously didnt look at the insurance and prescribed him a high dollar med that my insurance doesnt cover and now my son is still without medicine and still bleeding from his ear after they said they would fix the medication problem its been 2 days since Ive gotten an update. This hospital is so uncaring and the doctors just rush through everything and dont show that they actually care about you all they see is another pay check.

Community hospital east emergency room is terrible! Its very ghetto! Avoid going here!! The nurses are very rude and they highly lack customer service!! Theyre so unorganized. Expect a very long wait even if youre in dying pain, they dont care. I understand waiting is apart of the game but even After my long wait in the lobby, when I was finally brought back to a room, I waited back there over 3 hours in severe pain with out a nurse or Dr to come see me. I saw people walk past my room, I was in so much pain I finally got up to ask someone for help. Seeing my pain they continued to ignore me, and continued to inform me a Dr will be right in...After hours of waiting in pain for someone to help me, I finally left. I couldve sat in my own bed at home in pain with out help, Wouldve been cheaper. after seeking better help with a different facility I was diagnosed with sever medical problems. No thanks to community east hospital to treat me, they just left me back in a room to rot. (Hypothetically speaking) they left me in a room, nobody came in to help me..probably made my sickness worse! they will have you leaving that hospital and not actually diagnosing the real issues of your pain! The nurses were very unprofessional, they have attitudes checking you in like they want to fight you! Its a mad house!!! Take my word and avoid this emergency room!!!!!

HORRIBLE service. I woke up at 5AM in horrible lower back pain like I had never had before (Kidney stones) I thought I was dying. I had an ambulance rush me to Community hospital in hope for pain relief and answers. I was left laying in a room for close to 20 minutes screaming and crying in pain with nurses walking by my room giving my wife and I dirty looks. I was in so much pain and so scared, we honestly thought I was dying! When the doctor finally did come in the room, he was short with us, and raised his voice at my wife. He was in the room for maybe 45 seconds, and said he was going to have a nurse bring pain medicine, and take me down for a CT scan, (which was a bad experience in itself, because they left me laying in the room, half naked, cold, and alone, in pain for another 20 minutes.) When my wife tried asking the doctor questions, he responded, saying "Im not going to argue with you" and stormed out of the room. In the end, they gave me a small amount of pain medicine, and sent me home. I wish they could have resolved this issue, because it is now the next day and I am running out of pain medicine, and I am still in pain from this kidney stone that I have yet to pass. Ill never go back to community!

Very bad experience will never ever go or recommend CHE. My mother(Elwonda Jones) was hospitalized twice on both occasions the service was horrible, we were told the first time she was on drugs at the age of 70, and had given up the will to live they were so wrong, now just last week (6/13/2017) she got admitted (4TH floor rm 2472)for pneumonia which was we thought treated but they were persistent about giving her a feeding that was explained to them "feeding tube" is not up for discussion of a night time doctor has not called me on June 19th 2017, when I arrived to the hospital on June 20th 2017 she would have had an feeding tube. You know we were very upset, we demanded answers got nothing but apology she was released that day (Tue) with some new medications which one was a clodine patch we put the patch on her Thursday by Saturday my mother was unresponsive she had to be admitted but this time we came Community North. It seems she had a bad reaction to the patch she has had 3 seizures and is currently still here at CHN. My heart is just breaking for my mother cause right now everyone please say a prayer. Today June 26th is her birthday and shes in the hospital.
