After spending 6 weeks in St. Mary's, the only thing we can say is that we experienced an awesome nursing and doctor team. The 6th floor west unit, which is the renal unit, the dialysis unit are truly amazing. Good job to all those involved.
Overall, decent place to be if you have to be there!
Do not send your kids to the pediatric center here. Had a terrible terrible terrible male doctor here.
Lots of people don't realize just how crappy this hospital is because they probably have never left Evansville or any of its surrounding cities. Any hospital in Chicago, or Kansas City will shut this hospital down. The staff is rude, and the Doctor's are cold as ice. The care is very poor and at a minimum. I was put on birth control 2 wks after having a miscarriage so that Dr. Lanyard could make more money by tieing my tubes. I didn't understand why I was feeling depressed. I had contacted her and she told me that I was grieving from my miscarriage when I in fact was not grieving anymore. She had scheduled me an appointment a month out. A week prior to that I was admitted into St. Vincent hospital. I had called the Women's and Children department twice to let Dr. Lanyard know that i was admitted. When I made it home I received a letter saying that I was dropped from her care for missing an appointment. Meanwhile, I was still on the birth control pills. It wasn't until I went to Deconnes that a nurse had explained to me that the birth control pills that I was taking mixed with the hormones of carrying a child was the cause of my stress, and anxiety. After I had stopped taking the birth control pills my life had went right back to normal.
My wife had worked there for almost 20 years. The pay is good but politics of a Catholic hospital being owned by Ascension health is mind blowing. They treat their employees well. ER visit is useless your dying. Any other reason, might as well forget it. They have a predisposed attitude towards someone who they think looks like they are after pain medication. Nurses openly taking about patients drug habits, personal problems (which I'm pretty sure is illegal under HIPA). As stated before, my wife is a long time employee and they treat us like royalty. But someone off the street, with non life threatening injuries, you might want to try other methods of remedy.
I give it a 4 simply because I absolutely love the women &a children center. I'm a proud mommy of 5 and 4 of my 5 children were born here :) it was absolute perfection every time but 1, simply because I didn't have an OB due to billing issues with my usual OB, so they refused to see me. So I saw some old woman who was just horrid. anyway, the emergency room is an absolute joke. Let me just start out by saying, I honestly love almost all of the doctors. The issue is, it's nearly impossible to see one in the ER. You usually get a PA or NP. And honestly? The nurses are completely horrid. Actually, majority of the females who work at this place are absolutely awful unless they work in OB. And even some of them I would straight up refuse to let touch me or near me. The main issue is, the staff (mainly females) refuses to treat people because of the assumption of people being narcotic junkies. It's almost to the point where you could be sitting there with your arm cut off and they'd be like "omg you have tattoos and aren't wearing a suite you must have chopped your own arm off for narcotics so I'm going to treat you like complete trash and send you on your way with a bad attitude and ibuprophen". It's seriously that bad at this place. Which baffles me because, junkie or not, they're humans and deserve proper care. Addiction is a disease, they're medical professionals. They seem to forget that. And the staff all sits around talking loud enough where you can hear them and they talk about this patient and that patient, "oh this one smells" or "this one just wants pain medication" or "this one is a hypochondriac" or "omg did you see that woman's kid?" Like, they're super awful. They should consider a totally different profession. One where they don't have to even try to pretend like they're nice people, perhaps?
The Dining on Call, patient meal service was decent, with quick service. However the general dining room is overpriced, not much variety, and rude staff.
