When my furnace blew up in my face, the paramedics were exceptional.They were both calm and very caring along with being totally professional.Once I got to the hospital, the ER nurse was the most caring person I could have ever met.Although I had heard the wait time for the doctors was forever, I have to totally disagree.The doctor got there quickly and was very professional.I left in alot of pain, but that was not their fault.They gave me pain medication, cleaned the burns, and added a cream that somewhat helped.I never wanted to go back again, just because something has to be wrong to go there, but if I had to, I would not think twice about it.In fact, a few months later, I had my first tonic-clonic seizure.Again the paramedics were professional as I could remember, since I was out most of the time.Once I got to the hospital, the nurse was so sweet and understanding.Although she kept asking questions that I could not remember the answers too.She apparently could hear the frustration in my voice because she told me that was normal and it would all come back.The doctor got there extremely quickly, ran the tests necessary to rule out anything bad, and this was late at night too.In some hospitals the people who do certain tests go home and don't come back until morning.The doctor explained everything in detail and I was given the choice of staying there for a night or coming home.Although I felt like staying,my husband was more coherent at the time and decided to take me home.I would recommend this hospital to anyone in need of care.They are professional, kind, courteous and totally care about the patients.They don't just act like they care.You can actually feel it.This comes from someone who had always sworn she would never go there.I am now glad that I had no other choice but to go there.My mind is totally changed about the type of care I would receive.Thank you Perry Memorial Hospital Staff, Doctors and the City of Perry EMS Crew.I love you all!
