Misericordia Community Hospital

The staff are friendly helpful and caring. Doctors are amazing. I believe that the care they give is the best available. We have had numerous visits in various wards that have been initiated by bad experiences. It has been good to leave each time in better shape than arrival. The Emergency is smaller than required with a far greater population in Edmonton than it was designed for 50 years ago. However they do well with what they have. 2020 UPDATE: Here I am a year later to say that the emergency department is getting an amazing brand new wing, complete with much larger ambulance bay. This presently under construction and should be able to handle west Edmonton’s emergencies for many years to come.

Hats off to the staff working so hard I was just in the emergency had a trip to x-ray they didn't turn me into dust. Thank you for helping me out. Great job peoples you had smiles that means lot

My daughter gave birth on November 3rd in the evening at the Misericordia hospital. She was discharged the next morning at 10am, sent home with no blood work taken from baby nor was the baby bathed. By 6pm she's back at the hospital because she's having very bad pains all in the right side of her body and her whole right leg is swollen. As soon as she gets there they put her in the hallway put in an intravenous and it's not even put in properly. Her arm starts to swell and starts to tingle, she calls the nurse several times and she gets totally ignored. My daughter ended up having to pull out the intravenous herself. She was also told that she still has some of the placenta lefted in her and that's what's causing the pain. Come tomorrow morning I'll be phoning lawyer

I had my son here in late March and the L&D nurses and doctors were absolutely amazing. They were all so kind and caring. They checked on me ever half hour at least and came right away if I needed help. Every nurse I had was so sweet to me. Unfortunately my experience in recovery was another story. The nurses there were pretty dismissive and made me feel like a burden. I was only checked on once through the entire night and I had to ask more than once just for some Tylenol or a bottle for my son. Plus the nurse who gave my son his first bath was not gentle with him at all and seemed like she was in a rush to get it over with. I was also not informed that my son tested positive for jaundice and had to find out once I got home from the home visit nurse. It’s a shame that the two units have such a huge difference in their level of care.

Sitting here in Emerg for the last four hours.. there are more important cases than me... But I am watching the meanest most miserable person.. a nurse. She attacks people as soon as they come in the door.. so so sad.. yes I know there are a few weirdos tonight.. but man oh man.. she's the poorest excuse for a nurse... 400 pounds of miserable... I hope all these people file a complaint ..
