Pemiscot Memorial Hospital 946 East Reed Street, Hayti, MO 63851

"Horrible experience. Most of staff was nice. Some of staff were just clueless. I was there in ER for 12 hours and could only get two 8 ounce waters. The doctor would show up every few hours and not really give me info on the 3 blood sample they took or the 3 brain and heat scans. At the end of the day they discharged me against my will while not being able to see or walk more than 4 steps. The doc just said he had no idea what was causing all this. No Uber in the area and I needed to get back to my semi truck just one mile away. Finally one of the staff offered to drive me for $30 bucks. Run down hospital with less than qualified doctor and staff."

"While they do offer handicapped parking they are not a handicapped friendly facility. They are in need of some radical improvements inside and outside of the facility. 3/8/2023 How is it that a person was scheduled for a follow up visit after surgery and the doctors and assistants don't even know why you are there??? 07/20/2023 I absolutely hate that I have to associate with this Hospital during my work schedules. You would think this being 2023 and every other Hospital in the surrounding areas has public Wi-Fi access but no not this Hospital don't even have a phone service. I have to leave my patient to go outside to make phone calls or send text messages updating my employer of what's going on. Can the administrator please give access to the public so that they may multitask during their job too."

"They are very dysfunctional with no care for the patients the doctors l rate a 0 I’ve had 2 family members one had a serious problem yet the surgeon cute all over the face that had nothing to do with the her problem this one died if she had been at a reliable hospital it would not have been her life"

"We were traveling back home to Lafayette, IN., when my wife fell at the Pilot Stop on September 13, 2021, around 10:00 PM. The Pilot Manager offered to call us an ambulance. We decided to drive to the hospital ourselves. Upon arriving at the hospital I went inside to ask for assistance due to the fact we thought she may have broken her arm. The two young ladies looked at me and flat out ignored me and continued their conversation. Then the young lady on the left started texting on her phone. I finally said that we needed some help. She said that she would get someone to get us a wheelchair. She DIDN’T call someone for another two minutes. Needless to say that I was passed livid. The young man that came out was nothing short of first class!! He was kind, understanding, and showed us empathy. After he asked my wife a few questions, he sent us to the urgent care center if the hospital. Upon arriving, there was no one at the desk. However, we did hear a lot of laughing and joking in a room down the hall. As I approached the room, a young lady with long dark hair finally came out of the room with a scowl on her face. As she approached us she rudely said, not ask, what do we want. She was so rude, unprofessional, and downright mean. We’ve been treated better at a fast food register attendant or a toll booth attendant. She would not even look at us while we were exchanging paperwork!!!! Then when another lady came in to wheel my wife to another area would not even speak to us. Then we had a nurse named Linda came in. She was the best!!! Linda truly cared about my wife and her condition. Linda ordered X-rays. The X-ray technician came in and she was just as wonderful as the young man that wheeled my wife into the hospital and Linda was. Some of the staff working there definitely need classes on how to treat patients, quit, or be terminated."

"I can’t say enough about our wonderful experience at this hospital that say they are here to put a bandage on the problem. The hospital that says don’t judge me from my outside, come it and let me show you what we can do. We were recently there with my brother who was transported there in respiratory distress due to final stages of cancer. We knew he was in his final days. We spent 2 days and two nights in his room by his side on the second floor. The staff were angels. There was not one person who did not greet us with kindness and showed us love and went out of their way to make sure my brother and the four of us had anything we needed. Including lots of hugs and love. After he passed we Said goodbye to these angels. Thank you from all of us for making a very hard sad situation easier to handle by giving so much love hugs smiles and tears. You all were truly a blessing to us!!!! Keep doing what you are doing. Thank you, we love you! Sincerely, Jeff Murray’s Family"
