They will warehouse you and you may never see your loved ones again
I can't share the full experience. First, no one would believe it; Second, it would take me a few hours to write it up; and Third, if I write it up I will probably get ill from the stress I have experienced. A friend was taken to SIUH after having a bleed on the brain. She is 85 and has minor dementia. The hospital is refusing to release her, although she is begging to go home. My partner and I have been told 20 different stories by 20 different people, from being told if he got to the patient's room by a certain hour, they would talk to him and no doubt release her. He made it an hour earlier than asked and stayed for two hours, with the nurses telling him they had no idea who these people--the social workers--were. Back and forth we've gone; at one minute she's being released, get here; then she's not being released, don't get here. As I wrote above, it would take hours to write about everything that has happened. We had to get lawyers involved at $1600, charged to us, who are living on SS and retirement income. Honestly, if you are elderly and haven't your paperwork done, please don't go to Staten Island University Hospital.

I was supposed to have my baby here
I’m pregnant. I was in labor and delivery triage. I was told that I have preeclampsia and would have to give birth at 37 weeks. I asked for a hospital tour. They said they only do that at 39 weeks. I said “but I’m not making it to 39 weeks” she said “exactly”. They also made jokes IN FRONT OF ME about hooking my iv up to a watermelon to make me feel better. Mind you I’m black.

They have better lawyers than doctors
PLEASE AVOID IF YOU LOVE YOUR LOVED ONES..Only went there two time in my whole life. First time their medical malpractice took my mom. Second time they ripped my father’s heart 3 times in the middle while a stent surgery and ripped again while taking it out.

This hospital has no (zero) core values
My brother who suffers from mental issues lives in Richmond Hill Queens got lost and was picked up by the police and taken to this hospital for his mental state evaluation. We drove over very early to the hospital as soon as be received the news that he was admitted. We left our contact numbers with the nurse to keep us inform. The next day they called stating my brother is getting discharge. We told them are coming over to pick him up, please hold him there, he cannot travel by himself. As we were pulling up to the hospital entrance, we received a call stating that my brother was discharged and left the hospital ten(10) minutes ago...with no cellphone and no money. No regards for a human life, no compassion, zero when it comes to patient safety. The patient experience/relations do a lot of covering up. A member form patient experience return by call and all she said was, good luck.. no empathy, compassion.
