So Monday morning we discovered that my grandmother was having trouble speaking. My mom took her to St. Luke’s because it was the closest hospital. While there they ran some tests, and they nearly refused an MRI until one of my co-workers explained to the nurse practitioner, that my grandmother’s memory issues were NOT because of her age. They kept her overnight and gave her an MRI. The next day, they sent her home. The following morning (today) again she was having trouble speaking, and again was taken to the hospital, this time my mom insisted they take her to Mayo Clinic. Mayo got the records from St. Luke’s and it turns out she had clearly had a stroke. Did NO ONE even look at her records? HELLO, did no one think of contacting her or her family. Sorry, but that’s common sense! I don’t think I will EVER again go to St. Luke’s Hospital here in Jacksonville by choice. What if my grandmother died because they weren’t paying attention. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like I said, Thanks a pantload St. Luke’s! Now she’s in a better place (as in hospital, Mayo Clinic which sadly used to own St. Luke’s)

Next time, before you send a patient home, LOOK AT THE MRI!
