My husband had been suffering from tonsillitis for about 12 months, he would get a sore throat then be in hospital by the end of the day with 40+ temp and fitting! He had been hospitalized 5 times last year and 3 times this year, then they said this is not assisting his life so they put him on a waiting list for a tonsillectomy.
We waited approx 8 weeks for a date to have the surgery, the nurses and staff were excellent, the care and concern they showed my husband was terrific.
After discharge he was still sore and not well so he rested for a few days and then he got very ill, straight back to the Casey ED and they had him admitted and on a ward within 4 hours with IV antibiotics.
They have been fabulous as well with my mother's cancer treatment. They have been so accommodating as she has anaphyliaxis (severe allergies) they put her in her own room as to not be at risk of other patients' deodorants, perfumes, flowers etc, I cooked her meals and these were taken to her, not one complaint or explanation on why they couldn't do it for her as previous hospitals she has been a patient in!
The Casey ED had been wonderful.
"Wonderful care for husband and mother at Casey Hospital."
