Latrobe Regional Hospital Nursing Home

Spent 1 night in ER & 1 night in short stay Ward after suffering a spiral break to my arm. Apart from 2 nurses I can’t say anything positive about their staff, doctors included. From having to beg for water or food , being woken late at night for an X-ray, to Doctors not bothering to check records. It’s like the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing. Have never had to deal with such a disorganised establishment. Go anywhere but there! I would have be dragged kicking & screaming if an Ambulance took me there again. Avoid at all costs.

Waited 6 hours in evening with my 6yr son in ER and not seen, he had unknown cause of swelling to side of his face and lower ear. Asked triage after about 4.5 hours where we were in the queue, triage nurse told me my son was next depending on who else came in, but 1.5 hours later 2 other patients were taken in first even though they were already triaged prior to asking the nurse how much longer the wait was! A patient was even brought to emergency by the police due to lack of ambulances! Avoid going there if you can.

My wife Cornelia was admitted to the Emergency ward (Bed 5) on the 16th Nov./22 because of fainting episodes. The staff were very approachable and friendly. I would, in particular, like to thank Nurse Mel and Dr Malaika for looking after my wife in a caring and understanding manner. It was a busy night I was told and that led to some delays in her treatment which I didn't understand but on reflection I think the staff did a great job. Thank you LRH . :))

ED nurse Blaine working the morning of 7/10/22 was absolutely exceptional. His bedside manner was incredible and he was so caring, I felt completely supported and looked after. I thanked him for his exceptional care and he brushed it off as part of the job, but he went above and beyond and he deserves recognition of this feedback. Thank you so much Blaine for making an overall unenjoyable night so much better. You’re in the right job and you’re acing it!

Had emergency day surgery yesterday on my finger after losing a fight with an axe. I felt so extremely comfortable and looked after. My nurse Ricci not only took exceptional care of me but I witnessed her taking care of a confused elderly lady in recovery with me and she was so kind and caring. The anesthetist Cath was fantastic and listened to my requests. I felt like I was in great hands the entire time I was here. Thank you team.
