Bullock County Hospital

My husband was admitted their for two weeks, sadly because he had a mental melt down, but the nurses that we dealt with where very sweet, understanding, caring, and informative. When we picked him up the nurses actually cried when he left, and to me that showed that they love their job and want the patients to do better. when we come to pick him up they made us feel comfortable waiting for him to discharge, also explained to us his condition and what needs to happen to help his condition.

Well it looks like its about that time of year again, They had one hell of a BBQ at UAB in Tus AL. Let that be a Lesson, Looks like it was more of a Eye for an Eye, Have a good Christmas, HO HO, Gates.

They're are extremely caring and loving and patience I love coming here Ashley and ali

Fast, courteous, professional! You will not be treated like a number at this hospital.

I had a nice visit here

I admitted a love one through the Emergency Room at Bullock Hospital for detox. The ladies in admitting were very nice and understanding as we filled out paperwork. The nurses in the ER were helpful and professional.
The reason I am writing this review today is Dr. Stephen Hayden. This man was beyond pompous and rude. He treated my loved one with disgust as though he was not worthy of any care. My dear loved one went to shake Dr. Hayden's hand. The doctor not only didn't shake his hand but made an obvious facial expression of disgust. I stood by in disbelief as I have worked in emergency rooms myself.
Being in the nursing profession I was taken back by this man attitude who sees himself as above others and entitled to judge others. My loved one came here for help not judgement. I sincerely feel this this doctor needs education on addiction, as well as, maybe a class in bedside manner and basic human compassion. Dr. Hayden's attitude almost caused my loved one to leave the facility when finally he wanted help.
I pray that no one has to deal with this doctor. I also pray to God that Dr. Hayden gets help for himself. I have never felt so strongly about something that I needed to write this today. But if your loved one happens to need a detox hospital pray that the detox Doctor helps your loved one in the ER and not this man. My loved one almost left that day he was so anxious and sick. He felt ashamed enough about his problem. For a professional to make him feel that dirty in a place where this is the first stop on a road to recovery he should be ashamed.
I am very thankful that the detox unit nurses, doctors and aides were compassionate and understanding.
I am happy to say my loved one is doing well on his road to recovery. I am very thankful that I was able to stay with him for many hours in the ER that day for if I hadn't been there it would have been an entirely different outcome.
Again, I thank admissions, ER nurses, and the wonderful detox and discharge professionals at this hospital.
Sincerely,
Margaret

Drove from Alexander city yo Montgomery Bulloch hospital county rd 29 was horrible

My mother, daughter, and myself use to work at Bullock County Hospital. During the time of my employment and my mother's time working here our coworkers never bullied us into getting Fired or drug people's names through the mud, just to get ahead. It would be wrong of me to do the same to my coworkers now, especially when I'm over one of lead technicians parents at my job today. If anyone who doesn't want to deal with the stress, humiliation, bullying, and discrimination at Bullock county hospital then find a better facility with better co-workers that will respect you and the situations that you are going through because Bullock County Hospital didn't respect my daughter's.

My Daughter was recently Court Orders to the Gateway Unit, for treatment . I pray she never has to go back. She was there or 14 days . Of those 14 days I spoke with 1 nurse who was compassionate. During phone time , each patient is allowed 10 minutes, they would only let my speak with her for 3 mins, and say her time was up. Even several days I never spoke with her at all. I was ..Livid .When you call to speak with a patient, the male nurse or tech or whatever his position is (PAUL) was always rude and dismissive. The patients are already dealing with mental health issues, and their families are concerned, but instead of compassion, you get pure disgust. I pray No One else goes through this.

Went there for my spineal arthritis. It was getting worse. Not only they didn't help, but they didn't even look to confirm my condition. On top of that, I ended up with pneumonia a day later probably from being there. I haven't been sick in years. Last time I had anything was in 2009. I felt like they assumed I wanted narcotics. I'll be driving to Troy for care from now on.

I was denied my zubsolv, which I have been on for 10 years, therefore I went through withdrawals and could not sleep, as I was walking down the hall, a woman behind the desk , yelled at me and said get back in your room, they were all uneducated on zubsolv , therefore I left ASAP. This place needs a good cleaning, I would not let my dog stay here. I was very depressed, so my therapist said I should go to a mental hospital and that they would supply me with all my medicine, that I don’t need to bring anything, she was wrong.

I went in there to be treated for Anorexia but when I was overwhelmed by nausea it took hours to get me something to settle my stomach so I could eat. Not only that but when they gave me food I couldn't eat based on my vegan diet, they didn't give me anything to replace it when I gave it back. I ended up losing more weight, when I went in there to gain the weight back. It's like a prison, they neglect your needs, this is not the place to go if you need help.
