Harper County Community Hospital

Took our middle child in through ER after she slipped and fell after orthopedic surgery on her leg. Staff was very attentive and caring. Even though Xray showed no new injury we were very thankful to have this service in our town!!

The area badly needs the hospital, & doubtless there are good people remaining there, but our experience was horrible. I was wary of a provider there, because of word from my family & a former coworker. Several months ago, my mother was taken to the ER. The provider in question slammed the door in my face, & refused to tell me what tests he'd run & what the results were. I've never been treated more rudely in a hospital. Most recently, my mother was admitted there, & to credit the devil, he probably saved her life. However, there were serious issues & he can't bear to be informed nor does he tolerate any suggestion that his manner is unacceptable. There's an enormous problem here with nepotism. I was informed that I couldn't complain about anyone because they were cohesive & it wasn't acceptable to object at all about anything. I was shouted down repeatedly, insulted, & the nurse screamed--literally!-- in the hallway, that I was crazy. They hurled many accusations at me, baseless in fact, & were far too arrogant to be enlightened. Then, a sycophant LPN, a little follower, ignorant sort, jumped all over me in the most uppity authoritarian way for raising my voice to her. I had not raised my voice, & she had just gleefully witnessed her coworkers yell at me for at least 10 minutes, in the most abusive & unprofessional way possible. No one began to ask why I felt as I did or if the situation could be rectified; I was viciously verbally attacked. When I insulted the LPN in retaliation, she aped martyrdom as though their gross misbehavior never occurred. There was also a great deal of spite & presumptiorn concerning my mother's premature & inappropriate dismissal. I have heard from others in the community of serious problems & HIPPA violations, but people are afraid to complain.

Wife and son were in a car accident and taken to this hospital. Staff was amazing, Nurse Melissa went out of her way to take care of them. It was just a great experience
