University Hospital

Avoid this hospital like the plague. Mother was here and nurses kept ignoring us. Only two nurses were really helpful. Had to keep reminding them at wash their hands. Hospital was nasty and unkept. We saw a rat inside of the hospital!

FIRST OF ALL, THIS IS A CONCENTRATION JAIL. I WENT TO THIS HOSPITAL THE STAFF STARTED GREETING ME AS A THUG AND G, WHEN I REFUSE ANY MEDICAL ATTENTION FROM THIS UNPROFFESIONAL CROWD THIS COULD BE A GOVERMENT PURGE SECRETLY AND IM GOING TO SUE THIS PLACE EVEN THE AMBULANCE STAFF KNOWS THEY HAVE TO TAKE YOU TO THIS PRISON EVEN IF YOU ASK THEM NOT TO. ITS LIKE THE STAFF TRAINNED TO BE IGNORANT AND SO NASTY. THEY ARE DEFENITELY NOT THERE FOR THE WELL BEING OF THE PATIENTS. THE WALK IN THROUGH THE ER IS UNHEALTHY AND WORST THEN A THIRD WORLD HOSPITAL. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND SHUT DOWN. THIS PLACE NEED NO STARS .. GOD BLESS THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE IT ONE STAR......FROM "JOHNY,E

1 star because I cannot give negative stars!!! My father has been through a lot in that hospital and of course I am not going to narrate the entire story ( you would be shocked), but I think his last episode in the ER will give you a good idea of the quality of this Hospital!
He checked in at 3:45pm one afternoon at the ER did not leave until 4am! That makes 12 hours in the ER for someone who went through multiple surgeries and medical negligence that caused several mistakes and had put my father on dialysis since treated at that hospital. He was admitted at 3:45p as I mentioned before, the only ONE person who was trying to take some good care of him was a young nurse that looked like she was new and ashamed of the non assistance of the doctors on duty. My father was sent there because that day his caterer was clogged and could not get dialysis treatment. He was left for hours unattended on the bed, nothing being done to him for hours except taking his blood pressure. A bunch of doctors sitting behind the desks all hanging out and chatting with the look on their faces that people who work at Mc Donald's and make $7/ hour have. I am confused, didn't you go to school for this? To save people's life's, treat them and you make $$$$$ on top of it? Never mind, after 5hours there waiting and feeling sick and weak from all his conditions, he finally got a shot into his caterer provided by a doctor, probably student, half asleep that dared to say "how do I do this"???? Then the doctor in charge came to say they needed to wait 2 hours for the shot to unclog the access. 2hours, 3 hours, 4 hours.... The shot was given at 9:30p, it was 4am and my father was still there waiting for someone to check on him, crying desperately after all that he has been through in that hospital, nobody ever came. My mother had to close the tubes of the caterer that had been left open for all those hours herself and unplugg all wired form heart rate and blood pressure and get him dressed. She went to the nurse and said " please give me the discharge papers or I leave with nothing".... Discharge papers came quicker than anything else!!!! Shame on you doctors of UNiversity Hospital of Newark! You should not be allowed work! Everyone seems like it is totally normal to ignore patients and be careless!!!!

The ER is a joke. It's overpacked and nurses just sit around drinking coffee and chatting with each other. You request a doctor and wait for an Hr... Thought it was Emergency Room, clearly not.

My mom was treating there yesterday after a horrible car accident from the emergency department. Very poor service. The nurse was very rude and she didn't know how to speak as a nurse. She was only given two pills and was discharged to go home. She told the nurse that she was not feeling ok, she didn't do anything about it. Left her in the room for a long time as if she wasn't someone. Staff are very rude. Worse hospital to go to.
