MY MOTHER WAS ADMITTED DO TO A RUPTURED COLIN, SO THEY HAD HER ON TONS OF LIQUID IV, AND IT CAUSED HER TO HAVE SEVERE DIARRHEA. AND SHE COULDN'T WALK SO THE UN-FRIENDLY NURSE PUT THE PORTA POTTY UNDER HER. BUT IT WASN'T ALL THE WAY UNDER HER AND SHE HAD A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THE NURSE WOULDN'T CLEAN MY MOTHER OFF OR EVEN CHANGE HER BEDDING. SHE HAD TO LAY THAT WAY OVER NIGHT UNTIL MY STEP FATHER COULD GET THERE TO GIVE HER A SPONGE BATH AND CHANGE HER BEDDING....AND THE MACHINE THAT ADMINISTERS THE PAIN MEDICATION, IT HAS THE BUTTON THE ""TIE OR ATTACH"" TO THE BED. WELL THEY DIDN'T DO THAT EITHER, SO MY MOTHER GOES TO GET THE BUTTON BECAUSE SHE IS STARTING TO HURT VERY BAD AND SHE CANT PUSH IT BECAUSE ITS ON THE FLOOR!!!AND THE BUTTON TO CALL THE NURSE WAS ON THE FLOOR. SO SHE LAYED THERE WAITING FOR THE NURSES TO DO THEIR ROUNDS!!! OVER AN HOUR PASSES.... WHAT IF SHE REALLY NEEDED THEM?
AND BY THE WAY, IN 2000 MY GRANDMOTHER CAME TO THIS HOSPITAL VERY SICK, BUT SOMETHING THAT COULD BE TREATED. WELL WHILE THE NURSE WAS PUTTING THE FEEDING TUBE INTO HER STOMACH SHE ACTUALLY RAMMED IT INTO HER LUNG AND SHE DIED!!!!!!
SO IF YOU LOVE YOURSELF OR YOUR LOVED ONE, DO NOT STAY AT ST. CLARE HOSPITAL IN LAKEWOOD, WASHINGTON....
