DO NOT go to this hospital! Wait times are extremely long, 10-12 hours and you STILL don’t see a doctor! My fiancé had come here after a bad accident and we waited from 6:00PM until 1:00AM. Finally we had to leave as we couldn’t wait anymore. We felt like they didn’t care to help us. We wasted so much time waiting for nothing. We ended up going to High River General Hospital the next day and we were in and out within 2 hours. The nurses were so sweet there too and it felt clean and welcoming. Highly recommend High River General Hospital or the Airdrie Community Health Centre. It’s a bit of a drive to both but it is worth it to feel cared for! Please take care of yourself most importantly and do not spend your precious time waiting at this hospital. I strongly advise do not go here!!! Wishing everyone health and happiness! Take care!
They made us wait well over a hour to be discharged. Ontop of a 8 hour wait already. No compassion. We asked several times if we can be discharged and then they said after paperwork was completed then they went on break or shift changed. After a hour plus we went and found another nurse to discharge us. It's like they completely forgot about us because the other nurse discharged us immediately. We left at 3:30 am. That wasn't even the worse part. Actually the thing I was most upset about is the misdiagnoses we got after all the hours spent there. Avoid this place if you value your health and time.
The nursing staff treated my 95 year-old mother with so much kindness and respect. They were wonderful.. However, after moving her from one floor to another today, when her dinner tray showed up, it had nothing but one of those tiny little cups of milk on it, who, in their right mind in the kitchen thinks that someone would order that the lady next to her ordered pie pierogies, and all she had on her plate was one scoop of corn. The nurses apologies profusely, which I told him not to worry it wasn’t their fault and they phoned down immediately to get it rectified for when the dinner showed up not only did it show up an hour and a half after it was lukewarm and it wasn’t what my mother had ordered to begin with To me this is unacceptable They need to do better the sandwiches come on nasty dryed up bread . How are people supposed to get better when they serve such crap. Again, though I have nothing but respect for the nurses and the LPNs and even the doctors that treated my mum, they were Wonderful. The system is feeling everybody not just the patient but the doctors in the nurses too
Even if you feel you are dying, please DO NOT go to this hospital. I had severe abdominal pain and in tears and they made me wait for almost 10 hours from 10pm to 7.30am and guess what - we ended up leaving without even seeing a doctor. The nurses are unkind and rude - I was told because your BP is not fluctuating, we don’t know if you are in pain - and hence they did not check me at all. At 7am when I asked is there any update, the nurse was dismissive and said it can be 30 mins to 5 hours more because they don’t have any available beds. I completely understand that they are also tired, but kindness doesn’t cost a cent, especially at a hospital where many people need emergency care. We understand we need to wait but 10 hours for an emergency - someone might die waiting for the doctor!nnWith us there was another woman with her child who had adhd also seeking emergency care, they did not check her son. When at 7.30am she asked them for an update, as she was diabetic and needed to take her medication, they gave her no response. Not just these examples, several people around us just started leaving without seeing a doctor because it was already morning and could now visit a walk in clinic rather than spending an additional 5 more hours.nnWould not recommend.
Terrible Experience – Avoid This HospitalnnI was injured at work after stepping on a glass shard, which stabbed me near my ankle and caused excessive bleeding. My manager rushed me to this hospital, but instead of receiving immediate care, I was forced to fill out paperwork while still bleeding.nnThen, they made me and my manager wait from around 9-10 PM until 6 AM—without any treatment whatsoever. Despite seeing my condition, they did absolutely nothing for hours.nnNo one should have to go through this. If you value your time and well-being, avoid this hospital at all costs.
