In and out in about 2 hrs with a skin graft on his foot. All personnel were extremely kind, informative, helpful, and caring as usual. This was our 5th surgery there. Every time is a nice experience. Dr Loveland is a godsend when it comes to caring for feet. Thanks Doc, we appreciate you.
This survey (has been deleted so I have prepared this one) has nothing to do with my Dr Loveland, whom I trust completely.
** please see my previous post also from the same hospital stay***
The hospital also, had a large adult cuff on my arm. Which is too big for me. My pressures were running on the low end of normal. Therefore, I wasn’t given even my oxycodone 7.5/325pm every 4-6 hours. The nurse held ALL of my routine meds as well (Lyrica 200mg tid, bc I have severe pain due to severe peripheral polyneuropathy, mirapex bc of the excruciating jolting pains that I get in my legs and arms from the neuropathy, flexeril bid to cease the muscle spasms and also helps with my arms drawing or contracting of hands arms, facecymbalta 60mg two caps once in morning. I told her my blood pressure is always low end of normal. Thank God for Kayla the tech. She noticed I had the wrong size blood pressure cuff and she got me a regular adult size and guess what? My pressures were so much better.
1. Wrong size cuff DOESNT give accurate reading. Surprise! Kacey RN has
2. Kacey RN Wouldn’t give me MY maintenance meds. She didn’t care that I could have serious side effects of missing my medication. Maybe she’s new and inexperienced ????????♀️. Her behavior was far from excusable.
3. Told me I had the right to refuse but when I refused the potassium (they hadn’t even checked it since surgery). I was told by Dr. H that I would have to leave AMA. Which I did. I ended up in fluid overload last time I was given IV potassium couldn’t hardly breathe and couldn’t move my legs.
But they wanted to keep giving it to me regardless of all the information for the past (at least) the past two years.
I know my body. This hospital is awful and I will not go back to this hospital.
I wish they would stop deleting my posts. ????
the ER could still use a little work with there bedside manners but I had to stay overnight and the nursing staff that took care of me was outstanding this was the first time I'd used White County hospital in prob 20 yrs at least but I have been hearing good things that it'd changed in Sparta and I have to agree expecially if you have to be put into the hospital now the ER as I mentioned before a few of them could use better manners far as I'm concerned. but on the other hand the doc and CPL nurses in the ER was great I will use White County hospital again and I use to would never have said that
Every worker there was so friendly and knowledgeable I was very impressed with everything. All nurses was very compassionate and was very concerned about how I was feeling before and after surgery, Scott was exceptional! I would like to thank everyone that was on my care team y'all rocked it I'm so grateful I was referred to Dr Jeffrey Loveland he was awesome! I wished I had been referred to him last year. I highly recommend Ascension Saint Thomas Highlands!
WOW!!! St Thomas Highlands Hospital, Sparta.
What an honor & I totally agree!! Of all the hospitals in the whole state of TN our hometown Hospital is one of the top 3 BEST!!!
I had the honor (lol) of spending 2 afternoons just last week in the ER, with 2 different people for 2 different emergencies. I have been so impressed with the White County Hospital for the last few years, that I recommend it to anyone that wants to talk about how good our little hometown Hospital is. From ambulance personnel, registration, radiology dept, Dr's & nurses great care was given, time was taken to listen and spend time with us. I cannot say enough good things about EVERY person that had even a small part of helping my loved ones. Thank you for caring and being here for us!!!
Dr. Purgiel and staff were excellent and very professional. Staff were friendly and proficient in their duties.
Everything went smoothly and I was able to return home quickly after the procedure.
I definitely recommend.
Compared to others I have seen done elsewhere there is much less bruising and I have experienced minimal swelling and pain. Pain meds were sent to my pharmacy but will not be picking up because they are not needed.
A Great Big Shout Out to everyone!!
Thanks
