We experienced rude behavior from the staff when trying to ask simple questions like "when might we be able to get a hospital bed?". Telling us sarcastically that people have been waiting in the halls and the waiting rooms for 48 hours for a bed is unacceptable. Visiting the villages ER was like visiting a third world country ER. The ER should be shut down.
The villages ER is always my last choice. Had to take my adult son there several times by ambulance. It was so disappointing it was almost beyond comprehension. Now i use the ER in Summerfield or Leesburg ER. You’re right it was like a Third World country ER
