Im currently here at jfk hospital I have been in this room since 5 pm. The photo u see is the previous patient. The transportation guy that brought me up made complaints that the room wasn’t even cleaned before me. I came in for complications in my GI. I’m supposed to be on fluids. The iv that was in me wasn’t working cause it wasn’t installed properly. I voiced this to multiple nurses and was given rebuttals.once I got upstairs another nurse took it out because the alarm kept going off stating nothing was draining . But now it just sitting there. I’m hungry and was told I can have broth. It’s 9:40 pm. At 8 pm a nurse came in to say she would be my nurse for the night. She hasn’t been back. I told her about the I.V. Also the dr said he needs a stool sample. I gave a stool sample at 6 pm. And it’s still sitting here in my room at 9:40. The nurse said she was going to get the stuff she needed to collect the sample. She hasn’t been back yet. Now the sample is no good cause it’s been left out too long. I’m concerned about my health. It’s sad that I have to be concerned about practice and treatment here. I’m afraid that I’m not getting any service because I don’t have insurance. I have been polite to the staff so it can’t be that I was a “bad patient “. I’m hungry and haven’t eaten in over 24 hours. I don’t have any fluid nor was offered any. ~Eddie
