John F. Kennedy Memorial Hospital - Indio, California

XOXO X.

Since Bruises are gone😂😄 I’d rate my experience a 2.5 being transported from the hospital to the mental health department those restrain officers 3 of them TWO MALES ONE ☝🏼 FEMALE -While I was inside one of those closed rooms -> The male with no ID badge (At JFK) probably enjoys getting on top of patients- nonetheless suggested the female to trade (assuming he knew what he was doing was wrong / wanted to place fault on her ) when it was totally unnecessary ?The only ones who where professional where the Female and the male with the 😷 mask; I just needed sodium lol 😂 . We aren’t “Crazy “ Nurses there (Some ) forget the concept of Medicine. After all , the Brain is a powerful thing at most this point in time a few will ever understand. Neuroscience, is pretty Cool 😎 & knowing the difference is the 🔑to having a successful staff . Not all are applicable there that’s why it’s messy , hate to imagine how Mary mothers have been harmed .Eisenhower has higher quality staff I’ve never been harmed at Eisenhower. 🙂

We had a great experience here at jfk hospital. It was our 1st time going there but was the closest hospital due to the severity of my brother's situation. We entered thru the ER and then we're admitted. All the staff were kind and caring. Alen the nurse was super nice and kind to my brother throughout his stay. This may not be super ritzy compared to Eisenhower but it was clean and the staff and care made up for aesthetics, and the guest rooms were nice. It's the care that counts and they were great. Grateful for all the people that dedicated there lives to helping others. Overall really surprised at how positive a scary experience could be.

Why is this ‘hospital’ so poorly maintained? Nothing is developed to meet the needs of this community? What is the problem? This community needs and deserves a better run and maintained facility! So many citizens here that pay taxes and seems JFK hospital gets no funds!! Need bigger Emergency room and all around PATIENT CARE BEDS!!!
This is a disgrace to the county and city boards!! Are you all blind!! Btw JOHN F KENNEDY WOULD BE EMBARRASSED TO SEE HIS NAME ON THIS NIGHTMARE OF MEDICAL CARE!

If I could give this hospital a zero I would. There billing department is ridiculous. No matter how many times my insurance or I call them and explain everything we think it will get handled….. NOPE this idiots lie about not receiving a form that was sent multiple times and one person admitted they received the form and would be sent out and they would put the claim on hold until they are able to send in the paperwork my insurance needs from them. They didn’t have yet to do since October of last year. On top of that they are charging more the the contractable amount allowed. Never will I go here.

Horrible experience went in at 5 in the morning for abdominal pain. They ran test on me didn’t tell me what was going on or what were the results or anything put a IV and monitors on me, but never did go in and check on me or my vitals at all. The morning nurse that was there named CELESTE was very airheaded. No bedside manners I will ask her for water. She would tell me no that I had to wait until the results were in, but never got results. Then she came in throw my discharge papers on me said oh the doctor is discharging you. I have to go to my lunch now I have to go to my lunch now took off so the doctor doesn’t see you doesn’t explain what’s going on or what symptoms you had it took my husband to get up to tell someone that we need to see a doctor before we left. I honestly think that JFK should be shut down just because of the lack of good nurses and doctors. Your not heard!!! They just run your insurance to get paid!

Partners throat was closing and they put her in a waiting room saying there’s no rooms available. Once she decided it’s been too long (hrs passed) they said they have 10 rooms available and asked her to stay.. ? Work might be overwhelming but it’s no excuse for the whole staff to be incompetent. Not even the first time they fail to give care 👎🏽 if you need to take your children know the staff is helpful but not gentle at all with them.

Do not go there, there is no treatment.
The doctor told me her job was only to run tests to exclude life threatening diagnoses. I was sent to ER with chest pain, palpitations, light headiness and was dismissed in 6 hours with…. diagnosis “palpitations”!!! No treatment received! All 6 hours sat in the lobby with other sick people , they called me in for tests and then put back into the lobby. I was dismissed with the advice to drink Gatorade. Simply horrible.

Had to deliver my son here but wish I went somewhere else.. My water had started to leak during the drive to the hospital. The nurse checked my dilation. I mentioned that I have a tipped uterus and she literally said “that’s what all doctors say” and that she had been doing this for 30 years. Said I was at a 3 and they would probably be sending me home. I ended up being admitted even though she made it clear she didn’t know why. Mind you I live in garner valley and this was the closest hospital but still a 30- 40 minute drive. She and another older nurse were completely horrible. I’m a phlebotomist and they both went fishing while putting my IV in , they completely went out of my hand and back in and blew my vein. I had a bruise for 3 weeks on my hand. I was finally in my bed and right after I laid down my water completely broke. I tried to explain to the nurse that I thought my water probably just leaked before and that now it had fully ruptured. She flat out said I was wrong and it had already ruptured and said I just peed. I told her no and said I had fast labor and she brushed me off. Then about 10 minutes after I started having really bad contractions and asked for the doctor. The other nurse said “if your going to be crying like this at a 3 your going to need an epidural.” I told her okay if she thought so she could go get it ready. While she was going to get someone to do it the other nurse came back and I asked her to check my dilation. She said “ okay I’ll check it but I’m not going to be doing this all night!” And yelled at me. She checked my cervix and I reminded her I have a tipped uterus so check it. My son was literally crowning. She ran out freaking out and shaking got the other nurse and the nurse shoved her hand up my brith canal and held my son in until the doctor came. Even though I had asked for the doctor multiple times. One of the other nurses said that the nurse that was holding my son in caused my sons oxygen levels were to drop significantly.

She was hurting my son instead of just letting me deliver because she didn’t get the doctor when I asked her to. What is the point of going to the hospital!?

That nurse was trying to send me home even though I told her I had, had to have a cerclage, have fast labor, and live 40 minutes away. From the time I was admitted to the time I had my son was less than 1 hour.

Horrible staff and experience. My son could have had severe complications with the kind of staff they have here.
