CarePoint Health - Christ Hospital

This Hospital , Care Point Health is absolutely horrible under new management.
This place is not in network of Horizon Insurance.
( Old Blue Cross & Blue Shield on NJ )
Prices are extremely high .

We had a horrible experience during our visit ER on 8/29/15. My wife hurt her index finger while closing the rear window of the car which caused her bleeding and unbearable pain. As it was Saturday evening and this hospital was close to our house, we quickly rushed to the ER of Christ hospital. As we entered the ER area, we had to wait for someone to attend us for 15 minutes. Next they took details from my wife with regards to her injury and took us to the waiting room. While my wife was crying in pain, there was no one to attend us. When I checked with the hospital staff, they told us to wait and that someone would attend us when it’s our turn.
Since it was already an hour by now, we decided to go to some other place. But as we stepped out, one rude nurse showed up and asked us to wait for some more time and we will get to see a doctor shortly. As we refused to stay, she asked for our insurance ids and told us to wait again in ER area while she notes down the details. While waiting some other nurse showed up with a painkiller and bandage to which my wife agreed.
The previous nurse who took our insurance ids came back and almost forced us to go for an x-ray for which again we would need to wait 20 minutes before seeing a doctor. Frustrated we just left and went to see another doctor who did little dressing and gave her some other medications.
For this disastrous service + painkiller + bandage, after 5 months now, we got a bill of $3846.
I really hope the management does something about this poor quality of service. Right now they only seem to be interested in milking money from the patients. I would never recommend this hospital to any of my friends and relatives.

I didn't like that the doctor had an attitude from the moment he walked into the room to exam my 10yr old! When she had 2 freak outs because she didn't want a male dr to exam her… also when I requested a female attending they didn't follow through… and by the 3x when she was ready and calm to allow him to exam her be refused… this doctor was absolutely horrible!!!

What a disgusting place. Many of the comments have already given the public an almost entire rundown: appalling ER, incredibly filthy, Resident Staff have no confidence whatsoever or, they simply don't care to be at Christ Hospital; I'm shocked at the conditions in many of the areas around this hospital, it is unacceptable to have ill people cared for (or the lack thereof) in a hospital such as this one.

I wish there was something good I can say about this place but, my 6 day experience at Christ Hospital was a nightmare, to say the least.

This place needs to shut down, in all honesty.

Over the weekend I went to visit my father. The nurse I meet, Mohammed set about trying to make me as comfortable as possible physically and mentally. He was friendly and seemed to care genuinely for my father and every single other patient in here. I felt like everyone was taking their time to make sure that they could do all they could to help my father. At the end of my visit, I shook the nurse hand and sincerely thanked him for his help. And to my surprise the handsome guy who was taking care of my father for almost 4 hours wasn't even a Nurse, he is a nursing student. I once read a piece by Glenn Beck I really liked in which he stated that the biggest problem he had personally experienced with the American healthcare system was doctors and nurses who were oblivious to human suffering. I think there is some truth in that, but it doesn't have to be that way. My experience here showed me that there are people who go into medicine to help people and practice it in such a way that they alleviate suffering, honor patient autonomy, and heal patients' medical problems.
