On this date 06/10/2025 about 4:35 P.M. I was rushed to St. Joesph’s Hospital ER Department. I experienced a bad fall down 5 or 6 cement stairs. I landed head first, tried breaking my fall with my hands. I was bleeding profusely, from my nose, hands, and knee caps. Also had a huge welt or bump on my forehead. ER was extremely busy this evening, patients and EMS drivers scattered all about. The check in process was rather quick, I was put on a comfortable gurney in the hallway a makeshift room. Didn’t take long for the Attending ER Doctor on duty A Doctor Hamilton to attend to myself. He asked several questions and ordered a Cat-Scan to check for fractures and possible concussion issues. The nice jovial porter came within a good time, took me to magnetic imaging and had my Cat-Scan performed, even the tech there was nice, friendly and accommodating. The nurse I had on duty was very nice too, she made me comfortable, cleaned up my wounds, took my vitals and checked on me periodically, while going from patient to patient. ER was obviously changing shifts, and a new set of Doctors and nurses came on. Those ER Doctors took over, followed up with more questions, awaited results from the Cat-Scan, those came back in good time. Showed I suffered a nose fracture and no serious effects to the inside of my head. I had abrasions, hematoma and a “chunk” out of the bridge of my nose that couldn’t be stitched up because it was right on the bone, no skin to bring together. I was cleared to go, just had to wait for my paper work and a 7-day script for antibiotics. I was on my way, all in 5 hours! Considering on how busy ER was that evening, I prepared for a much longer time in ER. Overall it was a good experience for myself at St. Joesph’s ER on this visit.nThank-You to all involved in ER, Doctors, nurses, porters and even the hard working house keepers who keep the Hospital clean the best they can.
Giving birth to me is something extremely special but also extremely intense and if not handled properly can be extremely stressful and traumatic. Twice I had given birth here and twice I had the best experience a woman could ever ask for. The staff here is just out of this world kind, helpful, and extremely caring. But also very very knowledgeable and professional. They clearly take pride in choosing some of the best nurses, doctors and staff. 2 births and not a single bad thing to point out and so many good things that I cannot list them in one review. I really really cannot say enough good things about this hospital. Thank you to the st Joseph staff but special thanks to the nursing staff at the birthing ward
During the labor process, we were initially assigned to Nurse Sophie, who was exceptional. She was transparent about every step of the process, making us feel comfortable and reassured that we were on the right track for a smooth labor and delivery. However, after her shift ended, the experience changed drastically.nnThe new nurse did not introduce herself and was both rough and rude in her approach. From the moment she arrived, she was overly negative about the progress of the labor and strongly pushed for a cesarean section. She did not communicate her actions, including adjustments to vitals, increasing the epidural dosage, and reducing the oxytocin without informing us.nnWe strongly believe these uncommunicated interventions contributed to the labor ultimately resulting in a C-section instead of a normal delivery. We request the hospital to conduct a thorough investigation into this matter to ensure proper care and transparency for future patients.
Went to ER, was myself and another person in waiting room. I had a kidney stone. Took a number. The receptionist, Amanda, made me wait an additional 25 minutes for her to finish her conversation with another staff member about backwashing her pool. Staff had tons of food laying around. Finally got an initial intake by nurses who seemed not interested. Waited another 40 minutes. Left, went to Juvanaski and was seen immediately.
A few things- this hospital has potential to be great. The triage area staff were so friendly and sweet. The nurses that bring you to the rooms to be seen by a Dr are a little rough, they could have a little kindness, compassion, patience, but still just ok. The dr was nice enough, i know it's a busy area, but don't make the sick person feel rushed and unimportant. Everyone matters. The cleanliness could be better too, there were blood splatters in the waiting room, and the whole emergency smells like cigarettes. Doesn't really smell sterile at all. I gave 3 stars for the front staff, and the quick wait time, but the hospital needs a bit of care.
