Overall Review of T J Samson Community Hospital

common 58 reviews mention this

Nursing care is mixed

Nurses and other staff are praised for kindness, but criticized for dismissive or rude bedside manner.

Across the reviews, many families describe staff as caring, kind, and attentive—pointing to nurses who stayed engaged, answered questions, and treated patients with respect. At the same time, there are repeated complaints about rude or dismissive behavior, including accounts of harsh communication during vulnerable moments. The result is a noticeably uneven experience: some people feel genuinely supported, while others say the bedside manner fell short when they most needed help.

caveat 26 reviews mention this

Long waits in the ER

Several reviewers report extended waiting-room times before being seen.

A recurring theme is delays in the ER, with multiple reviews describing being stuck in waiting rooms for hours or being told they would be seen “soon” without updates. Some reviewers say they were skipped repeatedly or that the waiting-room experience worsened their situation, especially for children or people with urgent symptoms. While a few reviews mention being seen promptly, the overall pattern in the negative reviews centers on wait times and slow throughput.

caveat 5 reviews mention this

Billing and charges raise concerns

Some reviews raise concerns about billing accuracy, disputes, and unexpected charges.

A handful of reviewers describe billing problems, including bills that were higher than expected or charges they say their insurance should have covered. There are also complaints about unorganized billing processes and difficulties escalating a grievance. These accounts focus less on the clinical experience and more on cost, documentation, and follow-through after care.

common 2 reviews mention this
