EMERGENCY
LABOR
&
DELIVERY
I
had
a
regular
pregnancy
check
up
with
my
OBGYN
in
westchester
when
he
suddenly
says
“go
to
the
nearest
emergency
room
your
blood
pressure
is
to
high”
panicked
&
alone,
I
rushed
out
and
came
straight
to
Elmhurst
Hospital
(I’ve
been
here
before)
that
was
5
minutes
away.
I
walk
in
the
Emergency
Department
and
say
“
My
OBGYN
told
me
to
come,
my
blood
pressure
is
too
high
and
I’m
34
weeks
pregnant”
RAPIDLY
a
very
wonderful
male
nurse
wheeled
me
all
the
way
to
TRIAGE
to
further
check
my
hbp.
I
was
then
greeted
by
another
wonderful
nurse
and
she
stated
that
I
wouldn’t
be
able
to
leave
and
quickly
got
a
room
in
Labor
&
Delivery.
Needless
to
say
my
blood
pressure
was
at
185
I
was
put
on
magnesium
to
get
my
blood
pressure
under
control.
I
was
all
alone,
scared
and
worried
about
my
baby.
I
got
3
wonderful
nurses
assigned
to
be
Mikayla,
Syndney
&
Daria.
They
made
me
feel
safe,
genuinely
cared
for
me,
and
made
me
feel
extremely
comfortable.
I
stayed
the
night
and
around
6am
I
was
assigned
a
OBGYN
it
was
time
for
me
to
get
induced
and
have
a
premature
baby
due
to
preeclampsia.
I
gave
birth
within
8
hours!
The
baby
came
so
fast
my
husband
missed
the
birth,
I
only
got
to
hold
my
baby
for
5
minutes
then
baby
went
straight
to
the
NICU.
Mids
of
all
the
chaos
the
nurses
never
left
my
side
through
the
labor
or
delivery.
Despite
being
alone
the
labor
and
delivery
was
such
a
wonderful
and
amazing
experience.
The
epidural
experience
10/10
no
pain,
easy
and
successful!
all
because
there
was
amazing
nurses
and
doctors
who
truly
CARE
for
their
patients.
Clean,
organized,
big
rooms
and
very
comfortable.
I
HIGHLY
recommend
giving
birth
here.
