This hospital is disgusting in every sense and the absolute worst. At this moment, they've put a security guard in the room in an attempt to bully and taunt us. If you actually care about yourself or your loved one's wellbeing, DO NOT COME TO ST. CLARE'S HOSPITAL!! Front desk staff to the so-called medical professionals have been nothing but abhorrent and rude since the day our loved one suffered her stroke. Rather than a pleasant greeting, front desk is condescending from the get go, and I haven't even spoken yet! Our mother has been left in her own filth for DAYS, not repositioned for hours, case manager keeps pressuring us to move her to hospice care only 3 DAYS after admission. The doctor wanted to observe her for at least a week, but only after 3 days we have been pressured hourly to sign documents to transfer her to hospice care. What happened to trying to save her life??? This place is basically forcing her to her death for their convenience. The staff spends more time switching-up regulations, and trying to kick family out of the room then actually taking care of their patient. Family members have been the ones to clean her, reposition and massage her, and exercise her. If we're lucky, they'll drain her catheter once in 24 hours. Her room has not been cleaned since her admission and smells so strongly of urine. I've taken it upon myself to clean and disinfect the room as housecleaning has done nothing but empty the trash can in the 5 days we've been here. St. Clare's Hospital in Dover needs to be shut down. The moment you advocate for yourself/loved one they will likely retaliate. Find care elsewhere, because you'll receive anything but care or compassion at this cesspool. read more

My mother just suffered a major stroke, and rather than receiving the care and compassion she needed, the staff here have been nothing but neglectful, presumptuous, and incredibly unkind since her arrival 5 days ago. The entire experience has been traumatic for my mother and our entire family. - Front desk staff is condescending and rude. Specifically, Jason Romero who speaks down to anxious family members. No compassion or sympathy when we notified him that our mother is actively dying. - my mother was never repositioned or cleaned while I was with her, and I would be there for the entirety of visitation hours. She was laying in her filth for who knows how long. Had I not noticed, the nurses would have never done anything about it. - we requested that one person stay the evening with my mother as she does not speak English, and they said "No. There's people here that speak Spanish". ...my mother is not Hispanic, she's Filipino!!! We explained this to the security and nurses and they just looked at each other and shrugged. - Linda, our "case manager", provided us with contradictory information from what the doctor advised. Doctor wanted to observe my mothers condition for a week, yet Linda insisted that we sign consent documents to move her to hospice after just 3 days! No care for her life or letting family come to terms with what's happening. It seems like she just wanted mom to quickly die so she can move on with her paperwork. - Because my mother is actively dying, the doctor waived the 2-person rule and permitted several family members to be in the room. Every day it was a fight to be by my mothers side. The miscommunication on their end caused my family an absurd amount of emotional stress that we did not need on top of grieving. One day we're okay to stay, the next they call security to bully us out of the room! Only after speaking with a director did the nurses start checking-in regularly. It's a shame that it had to come to us making a complaint days later that proper care is received. I do NOT recommend St. Clare's Hospital in Dover, and I strongly urge anyone reading this to take themselves and/or their loved ones elsewhere. read more

Horrendous I got a call at 12:15 pm today that my son was brought here and it is now 6:09 pm and he is very very sad and there is NO EVALUATOR and will n no t say when he will be seen.

They ignore you here and are short staffed. We stayed in the er all night and they still dont have a room. The nurses are mean and unapproachable. They won't give my daughter her regular meds. If you can get to Morristown medical go there! No one here is nice or caring! She was evaluated and had tests when she first got here 15 hrs ago but after that nothing. Now i heard them say the lady in our room has covid and has been in the room with us all night and they said she needs to be isolated but they have no rooms so she is staying with us all night again! My daughter has not eaten or drank and has no iv! This is awful!! read more

My grandma mother was In the hospital for a couple days my aunt asked for a blanket because it was too cold and they told my aunt that wasn't a hotel . That is horrible to say . My grandmother is elderly and was very sick . Staff should watch there words you never know what case the patient is or the family to say that . Just rude . For other it may not be a big deal but it's such a small thing that could have been done . read more

I can't believe this hospital, years later, is still the same. Unfortunately my sister in law has ended up there. I had terrible experiences with my mother, (they couldn't decide if she had a heart attack, Denville where she was transferred to said yes),my brother with inflammed chest wall (works for utility co. and helped save a co-worker by holding a manhole cover) was drug seeking, my father with a terrible leg infection (cellulitis) was suffering from dementia. He went on sane for the next 10yrs. Now at least 8 yrs later here we are again due to circumstances beyond our control. Family member who is a patient is unreasonably anxiouxs according to head nurse. She asked questions twice. They want to give her Xanax rather then address her concerns. Stay away they will kill you and do so with an attitude. read more

Great hospital. They are taking care of my brother weekly. Beautiful place, looks like a hotel inside. Everyone is SUPER nice and helpful. We are in the Wound Care area weekly, OUTSTANDING SERVICE given to my brother. Highly recommend read more

Previous review: St Clares is a complete shithole. I will elaborate as soon as i have time. So, heres my elaboration: *Im going to use a fake name for someone to protect the rest of our family as much as i can while leaving a detailed review. I will regard him as the character i have nicknamed him after, who his behavior mirrors. Littlefinger. *Also, note that i switch tenses becasue i compiled this review from different notes i have on everything that happened. So, we have a family member, who got COVID 19 and went into a hospital. The first hospital was a different hospital, not St Clares. While there, she was cured of COVID 19 and taken very good care of, and her health was stable enough that that hospital thought she was ready for rehabilitation. However, somehow, while she was there, Littlefinger started to be regarded as her proxy, even though hes not on her POLST, nor was he EVER asked for by her. In fact, i had the doctors and nurses ask her the first day she was there, to confirm a proper proxy for her and she chose her sister, and me as the other point person, who would inform the family of every detail. Not him. But somehow at that point i could not change it, no matter how hard i argued, or how valid what i was saying is. Also, as soon as that decision was made, everyone else was completely locked out of getting any information on her at all. Even on small things. During the entire time she was there, her Littlefinger was working hard to keep family and friends from contacting her through video calls or phone calls, so almost no one got to see her or speak with her. 2 weeks after i was told hes somehow being regarded as her proxy, he had her transferred, and all we are told is that shes going to rehab. No one tells us where. So for 3 days we have no idea where she is and i start calling lawyers. After 3 days, its finally revealed where she is, that she is at St Clares, and my siblings are saying that shes dying and we have to go see her. So everyone who CAN, does. But most people cant. Least of all on such short notice. And remember that almost no one got to do video calls or phone calls while she was in the other hospital either. So her family and friends have been kept from her, even in spite of her POLST ordering that she be able to enjoy her family. We are told we FINALLY have the go ahead to call and ask questions about her. So we do, immediately. We are told different stories from different St Clares staff as to WHY / HOW she ended up in that condition, and we are told theyve stripped her of ALL of her life saving medications also without being told why. A few of us were also told she had kidney failure and was not producing urine. No one ever told us what caused the kidney failure. When i go to sign in as a visitor, which we can only do because they are saying shes dying, the disease control is atrocious. Some things i noticed when i got to St Clares to visit, that were very concerning about how that place deals with healthcare: during the global pandemic that is COVID, the woman at the sign in desk isnt wearing gloves, shes touching everything with her bare hands, and made me take my gloves OFF saying they DIDNT want us to wear gloves while in the building, she took her mask off while i was signing in, and she wanted to take my temperature with an in ear thermometer, instead of a contactless, or ANY forehead scanner. Theres a global pandemic and theyre telling me they want to stick a thermometer thats been used on others, and handled with bare hands, into my ear, by a person who is not at all cautious regarding the virus. I refused, and was told if my temerature wasnt taken i couldnt see her at all. I told her i was scared to let her put anything in my ears, and that im at risk. She treated me like a problem for being apprehensive about it. And she made me tell her what my health problems are that make me at risk, even though its none of her business and doesnt make a difference as to the level of precautions THEY should be taking. They should be using contactless forehead thermometers by default. She should only take her mask off outdoors, she should be wearing gloves and changing them often, or washing them or putting on hand sanitizer with the gloves on. She should not be touching ANYTHING with bare hands. She calls up other departments to see if they even have one. I waited a long time but someone came with a forehead scanner. However it was still making contact with my skin. She then handed me a sticker with my name on it, with her bare hands, and with my hands now being bare, because she ordered me to take my gloves off. So i pretty much knew right then and there the very low quality of that facility. Just right from the sign in. While waiting outside the building for my turn to see her, my brother called, and told me he called St Clares up and got confirmation of what i learned from the nurse there to be true, and that they had removed her from all of her li read more
