Wait times and staffing concerns
Several reviewers describe long waits and staffing pressure, especially in emergency care.
A recurring issue is how long people feel they wait before getting help or being moved to the next step. Some mention being kept in rooms or waiting areas for hours, including cases where they were told to expect care but it still did not happen on their timeline. Others describe the ER as overwhelmed or slow to respond when urgency is a concern.
caveat5 reviews mention this
Cleanliness is hit or miss
Multiple reviews mention cleanliness problems, ranging from messy rooms to pests.
Several reviewers describe rooms that did not feel clean and environments that were hard to accept during a medical need. Specific complaints include messy rooms and visible pests, along with other cleanliness concerns in shared visitor areas. While some reviewers also describe the setting positively, the negative cleanliness comments show up often enough to be noticeable.

Staff kindness stands out
A strong number of reviewers praise nurses and doctors for kindness and professionalism.
Across the reviews, many people say staff treated them with respect and were attentive during stressful situations. Several single out specific nurses, respiratory staff, therapists, or doctors for being kind, professional, and willing to explain what was happening. Even among reviewers who had other problems, positive comments about staff do appear, which helps explain why the overall experience is described as uneven rather than uniformly negative.
