Lakeland Hospital

"Justice for cemmi no one deserves to be treated like this This is the post from her Facebook I will never again trust St Joseph Lakeland hospital for anything. Before I went in I had 30% hearing in my left ear and 10% in my right, (estimated from my last audiologist appointment in Kzoo) I was medically considered hard of hearing now I have less than 10% hearing in both almost none (completely deaf) due to a traumatic head injury from staff shoving me onto the ground and holding me down. (Injured nerves in ear and busted eardrums from impact) I am now considered completely deaf. My eye is infected from having my head bashed against the toilet because the tech was angry that I was throwing up and crying- she shoved my head into the toilet rim and grabbed my face and yelled at me. She got even more mad when I didn’t react. They then picked me up, moved me to a bed. Restrained me and sedated me against my will. I was given no accommodations for my hearing loss: no one would use ASL or give me an interpreter. They just screamed at me. They refused to let me see an eye doctor. If I didn’t get forcedfully taken out I could’ve gone blind. I may never hear again. I will tell people to boycott Lakeland until I they are reprimanded for the abuse they did to me. My last night I was held down onto the bed by three people and sedated with a zyprexa shot and a Benadryl shot- I didn’t consent. Why did they do that? Because I was crying and throwing up in the bathroom BECAUSE THEY WITHHELD ALL MY MEDICATIONS AND WOULDNT LET ME TALK TO MY FAMILY. Do not go to Lakeland in st Joe for behavioral health. The staff are abusive. They isolate you from loved ones. They severely limit water and food intake. I wasn’t allowed food the whole time I was there. Another patient got in trouble for giving me her apple. Literally go anywhere else. Do your research. Don’t go to St Joseph Lakeland hospital behavioral unit. I will never trust any one or thing related or assosciated with Lakeland or Corewell health. Lakeland, and Corewell- do better. I will be going after you and your staff for the harm you did to me and the trauma you gave to me. This is unacceptable"

"No surprise this hospital has a low rating, literally most disappointing facility I’ve ever been too. Just left surgery, all cut open and they didn’t even solve the problem. Please stop wasting money on upgrading the facility and upgrade the staff ."

"Brought my wife to the emergency room on Tuesday brought her home Sunday. In all my life I've never seen a person get a hug and words of encouragement from so many nurses and doctors. These folks don't wear capes, jump over building or are faster than a speeding bullet. But in my view these people are superheroes. Almost every nurse I met, gave my wife a hug. One in particular . went above and beyond in showing her kindness. The compassion and love that was given to my wife, from ER to being wheeled out to the car was incredible. A heartfelt thank you to all the staff. Thank you."

"Dr. Mancini told my mother in ER that since she didn’t get COVID vaccine that he would rather not treat her and her be admitted to another hospital. What kind of so called “doctor” says that or does that to a person. Disgusting excuse for a hospital."
