My
family
member
was
brought
to
the
ER
by
ambulance
two
weeks
ago.
My
family
members'
nurse
was
rude
and
very
unprofessional
as
she
communicated
to
her
patient,
took
it
upon
herself
to
change
the
patient's
IV
medication
to
pill
form
without
orders
from
the
doctor.
The
nurse
told
the
patient
that
she
would
do
that
for
her
mother
or
father.
That
nurse
was
removed
by
the
charge
nurse
from
future
care
during
the
patients'
stay.
My
family
who
had
emergency
lower
abdominal
surgery
sat
in
feces
for
two
hours
before
a
tech
or
nurse
responded.
The
patient
asked
the
tech
to
change
her,
and
the
tech
said
she
doesn't
do
that,
it
was
the
nurses
responsibility.
The
tech,
NOT
the
nurse,
was
rude
and
disrespectful
in
front
of
the
patient
to
the
nurse.
She
wasn't
a
team
player
with
the
nurse
and
hospital
to
decide
who
would
tend
to
the
patient's
needs.
That
tech
was
also
removed
from
the
patient,
never
to
return
to
her
room.
Today,
I
called
the
nurses
staton,
identified
myself,
identified
the
patient,
I
asked
for
the
name
and
phone
number
of
the
nurse
taking
care
of
my
family
member.
The
person
who
answered
the
phone
did
not
properly
identify
herself
upon
answering
the
phone.
She
said,
"The
name
of
the
nurse
is
________,
and
the
nurses
don't
have
phone
numbers."
I
said,
"Really!"
The
nurse
replied,
"Yes,
really."
I
then
asked,
"Could
I
speak
with
the
nurse?"
And
the
person
said
in
an
unfriendly
ubrupt
manner,
"I
am
the
nurse."
She
did
not
have
proper
telephone
etiquette,
did
not
have
a
smile
in
her
voice
and
was
not
helpful.
She
referred
me
to
back
to
the
patient
and
ended
the
call.
Based
on
several
negative
experiences
at
this
hospital,
I
will
not
recommend
that
hospital
to
anyone.
