Jewish
Hospital
Review-
1
wish
I
could
leave
a
zero
star.
My
dear
aunt
who
was
38
years
old
suffered
a
massive
stroke
and
was
air
flighted
from
Anderson
Mercy
to
Jewish.
This
was
after
begging
the
staff
at
Anderson
Mercy
to
air
care
her
to
UC.
They
refused.
(I
personally
believe
it
was
for
money)
When
we
arrived
at
Jewish
Hospital
we
were
met
with
the
most
rude
and
indifferent
staff.
At
7:50
pm
a
neurosurgeon
came
out
to
talk
to
us.
He
was
great.
We
were
told
that
she
had
no
chance
of
survival
and
would
die.
At
8
pm
we
were
told
we
were
not
allowed
to
go
back
and
see
her
because
visiting
times
were
over.
(This
is
end
of
life
-
not
visiting
a
sick
loved
one).
Her
own
CHILDREN
were
not
allowed
to
say
goodbye.
The
next
morning
we
were
told
no
one
was
allowed
to
see
her
to
say
good
bye.
She
coded
at
9
am
and
passed
away.
Her
own
children
did
not
get
to
say
Goodbye
to
their
mother.
I
have
never
in
20
years
in
the
medical
field
seen
people
be
treated
with
such
cruel
and
merciless
care.
The
nursing
staff
is
the
worst
in
the
city.
Save
your
self
the
heartache
and
make
sure
your
loved
one
goes
to
University
of
Cincinnati
Medical
Center
or
The
Christ
Hospital.
I
can
promise
you
they
will
be
met
with
compassion
and
empathy
from
every
employee.
when
we
ask
if
family
could
go
in
and
say
goodbye,
since
it
was
end
of
life,
we
were
told,
“Well,
she’s
not
dead
yet.”
The
Hamilton
County
Sheriff’s
were
called
to
escort
us
off
the
ICU
floor
(the
police
were
very
polite
and
seemed
completely
dumbfounded
by
the
nurse’s
attitudes).
The
police
suggested
that
we
go
downstairs
and
wait
in
the
chapel
as
a
family.
We
all
did
and
sat
there
a
prayed,
shared
funny
stories,
etc.
It
was
a
great
moment
during
a
horrible
time.
Around
9:30,
Vicki’s
elderly
mother
decide
to
go
upstairs
to
say
goodbye
before
she
went
home
for
the
night.
She
was
met
with
the
same
rude
nurses
that
told
her
she
wasn’t
suppose
to
be
there
and
needed
to
leave.
She
refused,
said
goodbye
for
15mins
or
so
and
then
came
back
downstairs
and
left.
As
she
was
leaving,
the
same
Hamilton
County
Sheriff’s
met
us
in
the
chapel
and
advised
that
he
was
instructed
to
remove
us
from
the
premises
because
some
“snuck
back
upstairs.”
We
asked
to
speak
with
the
individual
in
charge.
She
came
down
but
told
us
that
she
had
told
us
to
leave
earlier
and
never
said
we
could
stay
in
the
chapel.
When
we
tried
to
explain
the
situation,
the
police
said,
“You
all
need
to
leave
before
we
call
squad
cars.”
We
told
them
that
we
would
be
back
at
8AM
for
normal
visiting
hours.
The
next
morning,
we
were
told
that
No
One
was
allowed
to
visit
due
to
what
happened
the
night
before.
They
said
they
would
make
an
exception
for
Vicki’s
3
kids
to
see
her,
but
she
coded
and
passed
by
9:15.
When
the
family
was
finally
allowed
to
say
goodby,
after
she
had
passed,
the
last
individual
in
the
family
to
see
her
was
told
that
his
time
was
up
and
he
needed
to
be
done
and
leave.
For
a
family
that
does/has
worked
at
4
of
the
main
hospital
networks
in
the
Greater
Cincinnati
area,
the
attitude
and
complete
lack
of
empathy
that
was
shown
by
Mercy-Jewish
was
absolutely
unacceptable.
While
other
hospitals
would
be
offering
Angel
Carts,
we
were
met
with
people
trying
to
harvest
her
organs
and
the
threat
of
arrest.
