![]() ![]() All of a sudden my daughter projectile vomits up the water mucous and some blood. The doctor told me oral Tylenol or ibuprofen should be sufficient for any pain control however when we asked for some the RN advises me that the facility doesnt carry childrens liquid Tylenol that they have made some changes in the facility and dont carry it anymore. My daughter is tearful and again cant verbalize what shes feeling. The PACU RN told me before I could hug my daughter that it was ok to get her dressed and we could be on our way as she already is pulling out the iv barely used 75 ccs of LR maybe I assessed her more than the nurse did asking what hurts Her tummy Her throat I asked for ice chips or water which the nurse promptly returned with a cup of water. With the added portion of the procedure my daughter was given an iv during the surgery. I was consented and was told prior how things would change as far as anesthesiarecovery. My daughters procedure was changed in the middle of her surgery an adenoidectomy was added. My experience up until our pacu time was great. In mid January my little one underwent a myringotomy. I found this to be amazing and appropriate.I noticed there was no changing station in the visitor bathroom.There is no location for mothers to express breast milk.I have filled out the survey with my cell number and welcome a phone call to share my experience and hopefully bring change to this outdated policy. Its time to move forward for the well-being of the pediatric patient and family.Both parents are allowed to visit during the PACU recovery. I know that Mayo and PCH allow both parents to be with children in the pre-op department. The policy has nothing to do with COVID- and if it did we are 3 years post-COVID and should no longer be instated. Legally the consent only needs one signature however if both parents want to speak with the doctors in the preop area this should not be dismissed.I was told the one-parent policy convinces the doctors and helps them stay on time with surgeries since they dont have both parents there to ask questions. Especially if both parents are requesting to be with the child and to talk to the doctors. To obtain informed consent for an underage child BOTH parents should have access to the child surgeon and anesthesiologist. The one-parent policy is outdated unsafe beyond stressful has a high potential for a poor outcomes and a risk management case. Philip Gleason Kelly PA and Carol RNThe rating reflects the One Parent PolicyThere is one area of improvement that needs to change for the well-being of the pediatric patient. The doctors and staff were AMAZINGThank you to Dr. Had a wonderful experience Im very grateful Thank you for taking great care of my baby. ![]() Woods to tell her that I felt very discriminated against and I would never allow my child to get surgery done at that facility if thats how theyre going to be treating people of minority something needs to change to have an 11-year-old child crying having her bottom hurt for sitting over two hours to be told she still have to wait because another Caucasian child was hungry I was furious and I would never allow my child to feel less than another child because of her color so she did not get surgery today I canceled it Ill find another facility that offers great service and treats patients as equals. The nurses even said it she was hungry as well so for Dr. She still has to wait because another child of a different color was hungry my daughter is a very smart intelligent sweet child. Woods to tell me that 10-month-old child was hungry even though he got there after my daughter I felt very discriminated against my daughter being a minority and that child being Caucasian my daughter waited patiently over two hours for her to be told. Woods he told me I was next to turn around and take another child to the operating room before my daughter and for Dr. Woods I started getting concerned shared my concerns with nurses finally got a hold of the operating nurse who told me they put two other patients in front of my child but it wouldnt be more than 45 minutes almost another hour past finally got a hold of Dr. I was told to have her there at 830 AM we were in the pre-op area for over two hours with no word from anesthesiologist nor Dr. ![]() My 11yr old was scheduled for surgery at the center with Dr. ![]()
