Months later, I spoke to a woman who is a nurse who WORKS THERE, and asked her about this experience whether it was the norm and she told me if her family needed emergency help, she would go to Leesburg, NOT to The Villages!
Where are The Villages standards??? Why is this tolerated in a place with such High Standards for so many other things?
Is there anything more important than our HEALTH?
News flash-----TVRH and Leesburg hospital are run by THE SAME entity. It's like saying I wouldn't go to Walmart on 466, I'd go to Walmart on 441. I suspect the nurse who said that is somewhat unhappy for whatever reason.
