[Guest guest]

Well today I spoke with the head of patient relations at my hospital. I again

explained how I was not receiving the best medical care they had to offer and

that in fact I was promised better medical care than I would receive from a

regular obgyn.

I ran down my list from dirty nasty bathrooms to having to call 3 times to

finally getting an answer as to if a medication was safe to take while pregnant.

I addressed the always being told to go to the ER and then having to pay $75 for

what could have been a regular office visit.

I told her none of this was told to me in the beginning and that they should

have a brochure on what you can expect from Women & Infants hospital as a high

risk pregnancy patient and what to do when _________ happens. I said that being

pregnant is stressful enough but when you don't know how you are going to be

treated or what is going to happen it makes it even more scary and stressful.

Her answer - she and her department are going to immediately work on 2 brochures

on what to expect from the High Risk Pregnancy Department and a kind of flow

chart of what to do in this or that situation. She said it would be done

immediately and sent to all their current and new patients.

I am happy that I made a difference.

I also will have a new doctor. I am going to be seeing the head of the high

risk pregnancy department. She promised that if I call and have a problem it

will be taken care of on the phone or in his office and unless its an actual

emergency I will not have to go to the ER.

Yippppppeeee!

So I am happy today. Thanks for letting me share.
