Spent allot of time in the chilliwack hospital because of having a large family and having to translate for them. When I was young the hospital used to have good care but now it’s horrible on all aspects. It’s dirty, as in I’ve been here many times this year and sat here for hours and never seen anyone clean anything. Garbage sits in the waiting rooms for hours. The wait times are horrendous, even when my boyfriend ran his hand through a rebar bender at work we still were there for hours. We knew the nurses felt bad for us because he was sitting there with and open wound for so long. Most of the time the doctors will turn you away multiple times before they take your seriously and one time they even argued with us when my friend cracked their ribs and we wanted a note to take some time from work to heal.
The worst part for me, is the fact that there were dirty tissues and garbage on the chairs in the waiting room so people were avoiding sitting on them. I went to the triage and asked them to call someone to clean it and we waited for an hour till someone did. Then, the lady only picked up the tissues and wiped down my chair and one other chair. I had to tell her to come back and clean the rest for the other people. On top of that the floors are disgusting, when there’s blood and faeces on the floors they just wipe it up with a napkin. The marks are always left behind and it’s so clear as you stare at the floor.
Updated EDIT, I wrote this while I was waiting in the hospital since I clearly had the time. I went into the washroom to go wash my hands and the floor was wet, I looked down and realized I was stepping in urine. There’s literally a puddle of pee on the bathroom floor. I told the nurse, and once again nothing has been done... this place is actually the worst place I’ve seen when it comes to cleaning.
