Clay County Hospital 83825 Alabama 9, Ashland, AL 36251

"My momma,( Nurse Jane ), passed away there 8/17/23... The staff in I.C.U. were very kind, to my momma... I thank them, One & All !!!!"

"Out patient dept was friendly. however the financial aid part of the hospital is a joke. They cant ever answer the phone or return calls."

"Do not come there for detox if you want to be comfortable.i was sent home going through withdrawals and it was awful. The staff,nurses,and Dr’s are wonderful but the detox protocol isn’t well thought out and they really need to do something because it’s hard enough to get to the point of going and then to be sent home like that ... I have no words ! Very disappointing"

"Clay county hospital. Went to the ER Sunday January 2. Was sick with a bad sore throat. The girls at the window took my name and birthday. Then asked me to go outside and take a seat. I said where? She said outside. So out I went. A nurse came out gave me a different mask then took me to your outdoor room. Took my vitels n explained the test they were going to do. Proceeds to do the tests, for covid, flue, strept. She was very polite n professional. She left, the doctor came. Looked in my mouth from a distance, put his stethoscope on one spot on my chest and had me breathe deep n let out. Said lungs were clear( I thought i had two lungs ?) but were going to do n x-ray. X-ray tec came n got my x-ray done. She was very polite. Took me back to my outside rm. Nurse comes back gave me pills and explained I had covid. Told me I would be going home with script s. She left. Doctor come back. Peeks in the door tells me I have covid. He's sending me home with prescription s. Asked if I had any questions. I said no and he left. #1 why am I sitting outside. Glad it wasn't 10' outside. I understand I have covid. Iam a retired nurse n would never think of putting a PATIENT outside. There are steps you take to protect yourself. We had to use protective gear and scrub. It didn't matter if it was Aids, hepatitis, scabies, staff infection, ---- You treated people with dignity n respect. I can understand being nervous about covid. But the doctor could of dressed in protective clothing and come in the room to speak with me like I was human. Peeking through the door is not n option. You people need to get it together. I almost kept walking home, because I was told to wait outside. I was sick and I am HUMAN. I would of never stepped in your door if I wasn't sick. Not sure I will ever step back in your door again. I used to work for your hospital. It was never like that. I thank the Lord Iam retired."
