Im sick of this place. I never get the same doctor for my primary health care and some of the staff have a bad attitude towards patients.
It's one of the few places like you'll say I have yet to meet anyone who is not an absolute professional. They treat each individual as if they were a person and individual. I have never been treated with any ill respect perfect in every way thank you
I am not a veteran but my husband is there as a patient .he has been in that hospital for 12 days and I was not notified about his condition or was called at all about his health that is bad management of that hospital that you don't notified the family or his wife how sick he really is .I am disappointed in your ways. I wish I could gethim out of the hospital.they don't believe in calling the wife or family about his condition that not right .I am very angry about this .thank you
What I love about Huntington is friendly staff, few lines, and solid general care.My in patient experience with my service dog has been stellar and the hospital setting is peaceful. What I don't like: transportation issues (when I first arrived), diminishing benefits, ( I lost 1500 in clothing allowances this year alone) and constantly being farmed out to specialty services in the community. This is challenging, particularly in a rural Appalachian area where it is one hour or more to go to one appt each way.I have received very good Urgent/ ER care, but I have received more than two thousand in ambulance bills due to poor technical writing on behalf of the ambulance drivers and not getting approvals for travel resulting in several appeals for all of my transportation expenses. I am currently 700 in debt after three appeals for transportation costs.This equates to 70% of my disability income for one month. I have been endangered of homelessness on more than one occasion due to disappearing rehabilitation state funding and increased federal bureaucracy. There is a lack of housing sources for women veterans with mobility impairments and service dogs.We simply are not offered the same level of care as our male veteran counterparts in Barboursville Housing program. Handicap parking for outpatient services in the clinics are very hard to come by.The hospital cafeteria and canteen staff are friendly.The chaplain has a strong spirituality program. Women support groups here are unheard of, but the Women's Clinic staff is friendly.VA HUD VASH counselor and subsidized housing is one of the best experiences to date. I finally got VRE services after the fourth application, my experience is very good, so far.Still waiting on approval for mobility grant. Going on 15 months and still waiting....I fight every day to take another step. I was trained not to show weakness, pain and vulnerability. I am often misunderstood, and called honey and sweetie. However, the staff members with strong military experience are very accommodating.Employment has been another issue. I had a horrible experience with employment in Charleston at the Outreach. I was denied CWT for Hospital employment, and I finally found an excellent employment specialist, whom was hired by the VA. I am elated for the VA, however, to my knowledge, no replacement yet for Huntington Outreach.Overall, the hospital experience is good, but there are definite barriers to integrating care and service connection.
The best my husband gets the best care here
