    My Mother was sent to Fisherman's Memorial Hospital- 135KM Away- because she was Evicted from…read moreBayside Nursing Home and that was the ONLY OPTION - After I posted Some Videos online. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8rGxjR7Zua8l2XcdgwkCqQ/videos Dr.J. called Pretty Early in the Morning, the Day after My Mother was Admitted. He said that My Mother, had Dementia; because she thought she was in Bridgewater. I told the Dr. that is where I told her she was going because she was More Familiar with that Area Closest to FMH- The Dr. also said, she didn't know what year it was - However 30 years ago really wouldn't have been any different in those regards. I told the Dr. that My Mother Usually is Awake Most of the Night and Sleeps until Dinner time. Though she was getting up NEARLY Everyday for her Dinner and Supper..and was Able to Feed herself WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS- and Being Bathed TWICE A WEEK, at Bayside... When she was Transferred to FMH/ Veteran's Unit... The Doctor also told me they couldn't keep her Awake Nor Feed her, and she was not getting Up. Complaing of a Lot of pain.. They Also Decreased her Insulin. Additionally the Dr. Told me to RE-Consider the End of Life Choices... What a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. Apparently, she was Awake to Ring the Buzzer to use the Bathroom and Take Pills from what other staff told me... I asked and COACHED them to get her up a Few times to call me- (One Staff Member said "the Only Problem is we would have to get her up in her Wheelchair") They Did get her Up for Supper, and she told me she was Not Getting Enough to Eat. I asked her to get up and call me that next day; which she did- and I thought she was getting Back on Track. However; everytime I do not call for a Day or 2 they tell me she is Not Getting Up when I do call. Nor do I like her Using the "Nurses Station Phone" and she is not able to use or Reach a Regular Phone. The Therapist Happens to be on Vacation for March Break. They didn't/ and Probably still don't have a Clock on the Wall- though there was one sent with ALMOST NOTHING ELSE from the Nursing Home. She is in a Shared Room - and has a Space, as Big as a Closet and they could not put her 32in TV on her side of the Room. I Believe I Now, Know -Why there were a FEW EMPTY BEDS! TERRIBLE DISAPPONTMENTS -Nor am I Permitted to Visit - because of the VAX TYRANNY! That is a Hard Pill to Swallow - in One Week. Just 2 Days before she left to go to Fisherman's Memorial.. I had taken her for a 2.5 hour Outing -and she was Absolutly Fine- Sitting Up and Staying Awake. I Feel Like My Mother was Given a Death Sentence! One Month Update: The Doctor called (the 2nd time), - because he was in AGAIN ONE EARLY MORNING and Seen a Can of Pop on her Table. The Doctor, told me that he will be the Decision Maker if My Mother is to be Resuscitated. He would not allow me to speak -and Hung Up in My Ear! I called to ask a Worker how my Mother is Doing: and they tell me "She is Doing Good". I ask if she was up for Dinner - "No" I ask if she was up for Supper- "No She's Been too Sleepy and We Can't Wake her." I ask if she's had a Bath. NO - She had a Bedbath Yesterday. My Mother tells me, They Don't ask her if she wants to get up... they just say here's your meal! My Mother believes the Staff Won't Bath her, because they think she is too sick! The Doctor has Taken her OFF her Insulin All Together; and she's Constantly Complaining she is Hungry and not getting enough to eat. The Grapes I left went Moldy in the Fridge..Though I told the Staff I brought them in a couple of times... and My Mother Loves Grapes!!! Too Many Problems and not enough space to list them all. My Concerns and Requests were IGNORED! Things can always get worse; and Fisherman's Memorial Hospital will Not Disappoint You in that Regard. CBC Fifth Estate Investigation Report: This hospital reports substantially more adverse events tied to nursing care for medical problems than an average hospital of the same size. This indicator measures the number of patients per 1,000 who develop problems tied to nursing care such as urinary tract infections, bed sores, pneumonia or broken bones. Nurses are not solely responsible but studies show a strong link to low nurse staffing levels.

    I'm thankful that FMH is a part of our community. Having a local Emergency room has been really…read moreimportant for us, and being able to have medical tests and so forth done right in town is a great convenience, especially for the elderly. In spite of budget cuts, and the fact that for some things or at some times we have to travel to either South Shore Regional Hospital (Bridgewater) or to Halifax, Fisherman's continues to do a great job. The Emergency room triage nurses and doctors have been mostly superb -- patient, knowledgeable and kind. In an area where new residents can't always find a GP, the Emergency docs often act as the principal gateway into our healthcare system. I would fight very hard to keep Fisherman's going for residents and visitors alike.

    A hospital review. A…read moretough nut to crack as to why or how you can give it a good review. At the very core of it, it's about 90% of the time, not a happy visit. I have been to this hospital for hello visits to lift people's spirits. to say goodbye sadly to folks in their last days, and have even been there to watch the Super Bowl. Full disclaimer.. I really dislike hospitals. They don't have many good memories for me, and to be honest, the smell still haunts me any time I think of it. But not trying to focus on the negatives.. there is a lot of great people in these buildings, working around the clock to make the place keep ticking. So many times I have seen nurses willing to bend the rules, or work the system to try and help a patient in need and it's those kind of people that make these places bearable for the rest of us. These people are the reason I give the Dickson building such a high review. These people make this hospital a place that people that have to come to, a place to at least be able to stand. I thank each and every nurse and doctor whom I have come across for the work they do, I know I couldn't even imagine doing it myself.

    The Dixon Imaging Clinic is utterly useless for CCJ, (Cranio-Cervical Joint) Complex imaging issues…read moreincluding Chiari Malformation, (Hind Brain Hernia) CCI, (Cranio-Cervical Instability) & CSF, (Cerebral Spinal Fluid) Flow redirection, Intracranial spinal issues etc.. Thanks to corporate lobbying no one has ever tested positive in Canada for these serious medical issues & just like the UK, (any imaging charts done read in Barcelona Spain) any proper tests & reading thanks to corporate lobbying & corrupt politicians who have no problems finding minions who will go along in the medical system, (quote Dr. Timothy Riding, "We are not suppose to ask questions!") prefer to keep it that way. You have to go out of country to have proper tests done & read. Dr. Christie ordered the Dixon MRI tests solely due to the fact that after Dr. Roger McKelvey & Dr. David Bond admitted it was undeniable that I did a better job self diagnosing after I quit going to my previous physicians, (mortality of certain social groups especially those CCI etc. well below average) After responsibilities as a caregiver ceased I went to the Clearwater Florida to have a DMX, (Digital Motion X-Ray) & fMRI. Contrary to what Dr. Sean Christie proclaimed these tests were vastly superior to anything in Canada because they take things like function, gravity & a CCJ Complex open mouth shot into account. In automotive terms it's like thinking you can test your starter, charging system with a static voltmeter instead of a functional current draw test. Current N.S. & Canadian non open mouth static tests are medieval by comparison when testing moving components of the cervical spine. The doctor in the USA who did the DMX explained before the test was done what should be found based on the symptoms I told him I had before the test. The eight page report showed Left 7.6 MM & Right 8 MM C1, C2 overhang due to irreparable CCJ Complex ligament damage. The neurosurgeon that looked at the charts & seven minute movie of which I have a copy of each told me the measurements were taken when the frames were froze in a conservative position & the actual measurements were just under 9MM left side & just over 9MM right side. The maximum both sides combined before surgery is recommended is 6.9MM. The neurosurgeon who saw me informed me he operated on as little as 3MM one side & as much as 11MM per side. At just over 18MM combined I am almost three times the combined total for an operation. I was also suppose to have an fMRI done to deal with the Chiari Malformation & CSF Flow redirection symptoms along with sudden failing eyesight & testing positive for Glaucoma shortly after the DUI MVA responsible. However because the clinic involved in the USA has something called protocols & ethics it could not be done due to a piece of metal in my forehead that even though documented by Valley Regional shortly after the DUI MVA in question has yet to be removed. Within days of coming back to Canada after the DMX & failed fMRI & Dr. Christie ordered no more tests required for a second time I was suddenly informed by Dr. Christie to go to the Dixon Centre for a non open mouth, static X-Ray. This type of X-Ray would be about as useful as an X-Ray on my foot. No mention about removal of the piece of metal in my forehead. I found out the hard way that proper gold standard rule of law testing is not the forte of Canadian Medicare & the same applies to MV58A protocols when hit by someone completely on the wrong side of the road doing 80KPH plus while impaired in the province of N.S.. Facts are due to the National Socialist reality that is Canada people like myself would be better off if Medicare was abandoned ASAP! In Conclusion anyone suffering from CCI, Chiari Malformation, CSF Flow redirection issues after trauma etc. is far better off getting a private sector open mouth X-Ray & eye test for Glaucoma etc.. If test is positive go to the USA etc. to have a DMX & fMRI & have it read in the USA by board certified specialists! Any test done by the government with taxpayers money is done for the benefit of those lobbying the corrupt politicians in power. That's simply the way it is in Canada! John F. Dorey
