Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center

If I could give this place less than 1 star I would.nThe doctors are good the CCU staff is great especially the volunteer from other states that came to help out 5 ⭐ufe0f.nThat nursing staff on the 4th floor are the laziestnNurses I ever seen.nThey walk past the patient like there nothing all they do is sit on the butts behind the desk.nYou would think seeing me come in there with my uniform and see that I’m a health care worker they would show better treatment to my family members. I hope whoever there nursing director is she really check on her staff and hope she better than them.nMy next step is 311 and nycdoh. I cannot except this.

My mother in law is a 69 year old Brooklyn resident who tested positive for Covid. She was admitted to Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center for 10 days and is now traumatized by the treatment she received. The doctor was very good but the nurses on staff treated her terribly! She was spoken down to, the nurses rushed in and out of her room and showed her no compassion what so ever. When we called and complained about the treatment my mother in law was getting from one particular nurse, that nurse went into her room and yelled at her for speaking up about her treatment.nIn the ten days that my mother in law was there, she has no television. The door to her room was closed at all times and she had no access to a window. We called everyday to speak to someone about getting the television in her room turned on but it wasn't until a week had past that they finally told us that because she was in an isolation room, the technicians can't go into her room to fix her television.nShe has never experienced as much isolation in her life. She felt like a criminal, locked up in a room, unable to walk out, mistreated by the staff and not even a television or a window to help her pass the time or help her feel normal or connected in a hospital that’s old and dirty, with roaches crawling across the floors in her room. She killed 3!nThe social worker assigned to her was terrible. We called and left a message for her and when she didn’t call us back, after several days we called again. When she answered the phone she said… “What do you want? You already called and left a message. What do you want now?” I’m not a social worker but I think maybe the social worker is there to help coordinate patient care and address concerns. It seems like that is the least of what they do in this hospital. At least not until the patients are being discharged. Then everyone wants to be helpful.nnDon't go to this hospital. Don't send your loved ones there. It's a shame because the doctor was nice and he was good to her and invested in her treatment. It would have been nice if I could say that for everyone else there.

Went for second vaccine. They actually called the night before to remind me. The staff was wonderful. Thank to you all. Wonderful care.

The vaccine walk-in clinic was helpful, but it'd be nice to have heat lamps outside when you do these activities, especially for medically vulnerable individuals waiting in line.

I made an ambulatory surgery on Friday and the staff was fantastic since the beginning until the end. They were very caring with me.
