Prepare yourself to get disappointed before going to the emergency of Simco View Hospital . I do know that we are passing through COVID-19 situation but we need to be treated like a human. Very unprofessional staff and uncomfortable feeling I received here. We are not the enemies, we come to the emergency for a specific reason. As nurses working with patients that need you, you should do better!

Great team inside the emergency room on Sunday, October 11, 2020 at around 7pm after a terrible car accident I was involved in, I was brought there by 2 amazingly caring male paramedics, which I forget their names. But they were amazing. Once in the ER great staff asked me the COVID questions, and within an hour i saw the doctor, and he lined me up with an orthopaedic for 2 days later. By 9:30 I was ready to leave, with a nasty fractured humerus. I know a lot of people would say that’s a long time, but I completely understood that I had gotten there at shift switch which makes the waits a little bit longer, but overall they were great.

Went to the emergency for a visit after I noticed an unusual change in my vision. During that period many eye clinics were not open. There were very few staff and when I went into triage and had my vision tested, the nurse was very short with me. She ended my initial assessment with 'oh for God's sake, there's nothing wrong with your vision' and passed me along to the doctor. Myself and several other patients waited an hour and a half for a doctor. The man after me potentially had a broken arm and must've been in his 60's. He was clutching it and had it in a makeshift sling. When the doctor finally arrived she was very agitated. Upon examination she told me there was nothing unusual about my vision. She dropped the word 'retarded' various times throughout the examination. I was pretty aghast. This is supposed to be DOCTOR and was using this type of wording. I was appalled and so were many of the patients. As it turns out, an astigmatism had developed in my eye causing the unusual shift in vision. An eye doctor cleared this up for me after a 7 minute consultation at another location. To say my experience at this hospital was subpar is an understatement. I understand that this type of work is stressful but it occurs to me that if this is the state of treatment someone receives for an alarming change in vision and/or a broken arm, this hospital is extremely poorly run. I will avoid it in the future.

Dec 20/2020 I went to emerge at 4:30 am I was having trouble breathing. (Not COVID) I was rushed right in, and well looked after by all staff in emerge. I was admitted into ICU, the doctor/internist on call, all the nurses and hospital staff looking after me, all excellent. The kitchen staff also excellent with feeding me and looking after me, thank you! The RT nurse Deb, who accompanied me to St. Joseph's during my transfer I want to thank you and the EMT's. Any NGH staff working Dec 20 & Dec 21 in emerge & ICU hats off to you all! I really can't thank you enough, I was treated so well. I would thank staff for looking after me, they were all very humble, a few would say \thank you but I'm just doing my job\ HERO'S!

You need to be more consistent with your covid rules. You were ready to kick me out because I wanted to bring in my own water to the ER. I am told no out side food or drink for all patients. Hmm maybe this only applies to some people. Because low and behold a man sitting in front of me in a wheel chair was allowed in with his water. It was only water and I was made to wait 15 minutes in the door way until a nurse came over to shame me for breaking the rules. Then you let someone in not even 15 minutes later with water.....
