Chambersburg hospital is by far worst hospital we've been to ever...My mom has been ill all year and in need of a transplant...while waiting for transplant she has had many issues with breathing and fluid gathering around her lungs. We have had 4 visits in the last few months and every stay there has been at least one nurse with a nasty attitude . Our current stay i caught the nurse in the hallway talking to other nurses making fun of my mom. On two occasions when the nurse issues were brought up to the floor manager....the managers never apologized or acted sympathetic to the situation. I am disgusted with this hospital and the bedside manner of these nurses
I was extremely impressed by the care my mom received from the Chambersburg hospital and ALL of the staff that cared for her. She came in with complete heart block and they immediately had her on a heart monitor and set up for success in case something bad happened. The ED and staff were fantastic-they were quick acting and had all pieces in place within minutes. The doctor saw her right away and reassured her that a pacemaker was the right choice. The staff on the second floor where she stayed were attentive and kind, they took time to explain everything to us and did it with care. Her physician, Dr. Johnson and the nurse practitioner, Nikki, were on point with her care. They explained everything in clear detail to my family and gave us the time we needed to ask questions. She received a pacemaker the next day and the care she received there was also top notch.
My mom is home and doing well thanks to everyone and their excellent care!
(Wife Amy posting) Chambersburg saved my life in January. The hospital has been getting a bad rap over the past few years and I believe it's due more to short staffing & the COVID-19 shot policies, and a few bad staff apples. God & C-burg pulled me through septic shock during an 8-day stay. I received practically exemplary care from just about everyone who worked my case, (shout-outs) from Bobby in ER, to CCU nurses, through discharge. Dr. Guthrie in Wound Care continued with me afterwards (all staff there are wonderful). I was too sick to transport anywhere else and they did a great job for me, not initially knowing what all was wrong with me. For them it's probably just another day at work on too long of a shift but for me it was my life.
ABSOLUTELY THE WORST EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE..... When I was pregnant I slipped and fell on my steps and sprained my hand, took them OVER 2 HOURS just go get me in the doors. And might I add it was pretty empty in that building (I wonder why) then it took them ANOTHER 2 HOURS just to look at my hand, and ANOTHER 2 HOURS just for them to say I'm fine you can go home then had the audacity to charge me $400 upfront.... I ended up having my son at UPMC in Carlisle (Best experience might I add). Will not EVER be going to Chambersburg again and if you can help it I wouldn't recommend it.. the people there treat you like garbage and like you don't know your own body constantly telling you what's best FOR YOU and treating you like a nuance when you need something. If I could give this place a 0 I would.
I was there with a family member 5/24. I normally have a good experience. Tonight the ER nurse was rude. The nurse assigned discharged with no explanation of diagnosis or medications ordered. The doctor who was awesome very personable and kind had to run to catch use outside the ER just to catch up with us to speak with us due to being discharged by the nurse without the doctor knowledge
Nurses are overworked. Some things in my care went undocumented but Dr. Gordon helped me a lot. Nurse Steve is amazing!! Dr. Muhkerjee is very knowledgeable in psychiatry and listens to his patients well. I experienced sexual harassment twice by male patients while I was there and staff immediately took action to protect me. I just wish they had an outdoor area for patients because we desperately needed fresh air in the place or a gym or something, but occupational therapy was amazing. Laurie, Devin, & Mark were phenomenal to be around!
This hospital is a joke. If I were dying I wouldn't even go to that hospital. My brother has been in there for 2 weeks and they've ran some test on him but haven't gotten any results back on anything. They told him they were going to put a feeding tube in him and then did not they also told him they were going to give him a blood transfusion and then did not. They have told him so many things they were going to do that they haven't done. He looks like a pow refugee and is very sick. He has been unable to eat anything since he's been in there. They were going to do a colonoscopy today but he only drank half the stuff so they said they couldn't do it. Not sure why he doesn't have anything in him to begin with. Just one more thing they said they were going to do and haven't. He has a different doctor about every day and the doctors don't know what the other one are doing because they don't communicate with each other. Please if you care about yourself or your loved one do not ever go to this Hospital. The only thing good about it is the nurses.
The wait for radiology to read a CT is ridiculous. We came in at 6:30pm, triaged within 15 min. Dr came into our room right away, nurse very nice, the wait is what is terrible it's 9:41 and still waiting...
