Had to get an MRI here…read more My appointment was at 7am on a Sunday morning, I was told to arrive 30min before. I arrived at 6.30am and the doors were still locked. I stood outside with another patient and the security guard on duty. I Wear a Dexcom G7 CGM for Type 1 diabetes, I didn't find until it was time to go into the room for the MRI that I would have to remove my CGM sensor to get the MRI. I should have been messaged through the my chart portal not to wear the Dexcom G7 CGM, these sensors cost money and I had to trash a brand new one. What's the point of filling out online check in days before if they're not going to communicate the simplest things. The MRI took about 20Min

I was told I would walk 4 hours after my spine surgery. I was awake at noon after surgery and by 7…read morep.m., and several requests to walk, nothing happened until I texted my Doctor at 9:00 p.m. THEN I WAS WALKED Their Posh Care 8-part video on what to expect before and after the surgery was NO stars. They showed a couple receiving packets of information and how much information would happen. I had a few phone interviews but no paper instructions or an email with instructions they may have given me by phone. My Doctor called the night before making sure I had not taken certain meds. I told him I didn't know I shouldn't have taken the meds I did. I told him I had been called, but no physical information was given or sent. The video shows people getting PACKETS AND SPEAKING PERSONALLY. This is inexcusable. This is serious surgery...not a tonsillectomy. I went to the hospital a day before the surgery because I needed to make sure I had a caseworker, as there was no one at my home for almost a week after surgery so there was no care aid. My insurance pays for 20 days of facility care. I never saw a caseworker. The caseworker called minutes before my Doctor walked in to discharge me. I left with my son to their family home where there was no bed on the first floor. After spine surgery, you cannot go up a flight of stairs. I SLEPT ON A COUCH FOR THE FIRST TWO NIGHTS until I chose to go home where there was at least a bed, but no home help. For whatever reason, after I was home for a week, I felt like I was buckling after I got out of bed one morning, and had a dresser to grab and stabilize. After that, I ordered a recliner to sleep in. I have been sleeping in a recliner for over a week because I fear getting in and out of bed. I even worked with the Occupational therapist on this and showed her how I was getting in and out. The problem is BOTH LEGS DO NOT SHIFT TOGETHER. I was stressing my back getting in and out of bed. I remained challenged to get in and out of my bed and there had been no videos on how to do that. Just verbal instructions. There definitely should be some care videos!!! Here is one from Nebraska Spine that might serve Duke well. Tutorial videos getting in and out of a car, and bed would be brilliant. How to get in a car https://youtu.be/IoyCK-mz5RE?si=fl2QXi-GnE-sXVX8 In and out of bed https://youtu.be/gWys8QnClbk?si=a23ayVPbwKv8fYJ1 After I returned home there was a survey I sent a review and received a feeble apology. Apologies do not cover how serious this is. I would NEVER WANT ANYONE TO GO THROUGH WHAT I WENT THROUGH. I would give a few of the nurses a solid 5, but the shift that was supposed to walk me, and the nurse that did walk me that night, didn't have the bedside presence and concern the others did. I am now 5 weeks out and am beginning to search on YouTube to see how to manage my pain!!!! Thanksgiving was awful, and that is what has precipitated this email. I was told I could drive at my three-week check, but I have found that I pay a price for driving and doing too much in a day. The problem is, "what" is too much. It's trial and error. Most of these posts are from several years back. This review reflects only the hospital. I feel that Duke should make sure patients get the care they propose. Their 8 mods do not represent my experience.
