Unbelievable
Self-verified patient of Norwood Hospital - Posted on December 1st, 2019
I went to visit a friend who had gone to the ER the night before because she couldn’t breathe. She was waiting to be discharged but could not leave until she called CVS to ensure her prescriptions were ready. When she finally got through after an hour CVS had no such. Turns out the hospital person forgot to send the prescription. So the nurse on duty had to text her to call it in. My friend had told the hospital that she was allergic to the one drug. But they ignored her. When the prescriptions were finally ready they let her go. She was very weak and still had trouble breathing. It was a long walk to the parking garage and she had to stop several times to catch her breath. She went to see her doctor who was appalled at her care or lack of care. The hospital gave her nothing to help her breathe. Turns out she had severe bronchitis. Hospital said she had a heart issue. I would never go to that hospital and I would certainly discourage anyone from going there. I have had similar bad experiences there, as have others I know of. But those are other stories...
