UnityPoint Health - Iowa Methodist Medical Center

They are very slow and probably understaffed like everyone else. I do have concerns that privacy is violated because they come out to the ER waiting room and take vitals in front of everyone. They say the vitals in front of everybody and several times I saw it prompt conversations about conditions people have. Several people wondered if this was legal.

For 5 days. I walked in several days and my elderly mom was uncovered and curled up in ball at end of bed. I’m a nurse and assisted her myself back up straight. I also did all adls and oral cares as she didn’t receive that while here. I have my Mom a shower, no railing to hold onto getting in and out of shower, shower sprayed out of end piece that was broken and all over bathroom and me. The shower chair leg was rusty and fell apart while my Mom was sitting on it during shower. Traveling nurse took care of my Mom for most of the time and didn’t see her much during shift. I had to ask for new iv bag as hers was beeping for at least 20 minutes. Dirty linens laid on her room floor most of morning u til I picked them up. The techs were nice but came in and left and I had to asked for linens to asssit her with shower and making her bed. Decent care by staff when you do see them but I don’t feel it’s the best. Food was not good and bland which we know can’t be seasoned much.

Horrible staffing in the Emergency room. Nurses are very disrespectful and show no compassion for the patients at all. ONLY good thing out of this hospital is the children’s side of it other than that I would not waste your time.

Labor and delivery nurses allowed unwanted visitors when the door was posted no visitors. My wife was allowed to be assaulted because of their neglect.

Good luck to anyone really dealing with a illness or a loved one who is dealing with illness or serious health conditions this organization is pretty much run by boomer Facist' and the experience some of the NR or related ranks although sometimes have long work experience doesn't exactly mean they have good experience working in their fields, every unity point oriented organization has been horrible to me and ill never step foot in one of the extremely old buildings. This one in particular is extremely old, everything outside of this hospital is old and inside too. Good luck to anyone who's suffering from a serious condition.

Every single time you call billing you get sent through this transfer to a different department rabbit hole. More painful than any trauma that caused your visit to UnityPoint in the first place. Better yet, you leave a voicemail. They call you back, you explain your situation all over again and then you get placed on hold only to be sent to another voicemail box. Run by complete morons. I hate everything about this health system.

Took my son here to the ER mid afternoon, as he got an object stuck in his ear and could not get it out! He got in rite away, during my sons visit, we received notifications on our cellphone thru out our visit letting us know who our nurse and Dr was that will be taking care of my son. Nurse was Jayden and Dr was VAUT (sp?) All I can say is, he treated very well here, we got in and out in no time. Everyone treated my son with care, “Thank You, Methodist”. The experience here was great
