TVH and TVER exist to assist people and primarily the elderly. it exist to make sick people more comfortable, recover and prevent their demise. there is no such thing as a dress rehearsal. TV's age demographic is fragile I believe in PA and NP because some of the best care I got came from these folks. The complaints about TVH and TVER have been ongoing since I arrived over 11 years ago. you would believe they would have had their act together by now . I placed myself in the Munroe Health Care System a year after I arrived because I did not feel comfortable with TV Healthcare System |

No difference in this ER from my experiences up North. I think most of the staff are employees, the physician group is contracted.
We have had 3 experiences in the ER and all positive at TVRH. |

I also believe The American Medical Association should investigate the system since there are years of non-compliant accusations and data on this site alone that suggest lack of the physical service staff that should be in place in a business that displays Emergency Service that draws people in assuming they will receive reasonable service but instead are subjected to lack of staff therefore lack of a reasonable treatment time and a personal degraded feeling by those left to sit in a waiting room either with cuts and bleeding or so sick they can hardly sit up and still have to wait an enormous and unacceptable amount of time to be attended to. |

triage in TV er is not triage.
It is nothing more than one or two "nurses" taking information and sometimes even vitals. The last time I was there the nurse dude was eating his lunch while getting my information. Half way through we walked out and drove to MRC trauma center.....electronic kiosk sign in...15 minutes later in treatment room. TV er definitely has a problem.....that I personally do not think should be allowed to be explained away.....YEAR AFTER YEAR!!!! |

If you read the interesting link, you will see that they have hospitals listed under different specialties such as Cardiac, Cancer, etc. Moffitt which has been in the top three for Cancer is listed at nine this year. Cleveland Clinic has been listed as the number one Heart Hospital for years. Boston Childrens, Philadephia Childrens, and Cincinnati Childrens shuffle around now in top three but Boston Childrens had been number one for years and years as part of the Harvard Medical Complex. I think people living in or near Boston have the best medical community in the country nearby them. Just my opinion and I am not a medically trained person.
Our Helene still returns to Cincinnati Childrens Hospital for her check ups although her surgery to fix her heart was 35 years ago. They have an adult congenital heart section that continues to monitor their adult patients simply because their problems are so unusual and complex. My musings this morning before coffee. (Always suspect) Good Morning. It is a beautiful day in The Villages.

I’m heading to Boston tomorrow for an appointment at Mass General Hospital on Weds. fortunately they take my United Health plan so my copay to see one of 4 specialists in USA for my issue is the same $15.00 as a specialist visit is here. YAY. It’s always a pleasure (sort of) to go there. However I am very pleased with all care i’ve received here in Villages, even the ER.
Bonus is Thanksgiving with family! |

I spent 8 hours in the Villages Hospital 3 days ago. I came in on my own with chest, arm and under the left rib pain. They took me right in. We had driven to Leesburg first and there must have been 50 people in the waiting room. The Villages had only 5 people. They took me back for an EKG. The person doing it was not familiar with the EKG machine and the leads kept falling off plus she had several crossed and kept fiddling with it. It's a good thing I didn''t have a heart attack sitting there for almost 45 minutes to figure it out which she never did. Finally another nurse walked in looking for me and had to show her what she was doing wrong and had it done in less than 5 minutes. From there the care got better with bloodwork and Cat scan. It ended up being something unrelated to the heart thank God. I would say I received excellent care except for the EKG. So far there I have had one bad experience and one good one.

The Villages® Regional Hospital and Leesburg Regional Med. Center are part of Central Florida Health, a locally owned and governed not-for-profit healthcare system. They are not part of The Villages Health. The Villages Health just added a Hospitalist at The Villages Regional Hospital. It won't help ER times for people who are part of The Villages Health UHC Advantage plan, but it means there will be a resource if you are admitted to the hospital.

I believe it's Monroe Regional Medical Center in Ocala.
