| - What can I say, it's a hospital. I think for the most part everyone hates the hospital, whether it be if you're going in for something yourself, visiting someone else, or even just talking about the food, who really likes the hospital?
Mountain View isn't too bad. There are many hospitals in Vegas and I have been a patient at five of them. I have to say that Mountain View was not a bad experience for me.
My first experience at Mountain View was when I had my first baby. I had a regular delivery and I was in labor for 14 hours. The labor and delivery nurses were great. They were very patient with me and I felt very comfortable the whole time. After my delivery, I was moved to the postpartum side and the nurses there were just as nice and helpful. I has no issues during my stay here. I was also able to have my own private room during my stay which was great, as it allowed me to get some sleep and it was great for that family privacy and bonding time with our new baby. They brought in a roll away bed for my husband so he could stay the night with me. The nurses also showed us where we could help ourselves to sandwiches, sodas, juices, fruit and pudding cups, which came in handy during the middle of the night.
My second experience at Mountain View was for a full spinal fusion, where they went through my stomach and placed a metal cage on my spine. Then they rolled me over and and screwed it into place through my back. I was in surgery for six hours. I woke up in intensive care and spent a week in the hospital with 40 staples up my stomach and 40 staples up my spine. To top things off I was also in a back brace. During my week stay at Mountain View, the nurses were really patient with me and they helped me with everything. Again, I was able to have my own private room, which was great because I was there for a week and I was pretty messed up, so by the time I was able to start getting out of bed it was nice to have my own bathroom and space to move around. The worst part about my stay was the physical therapy lady that kept coming in my room to make me start moving again. I would just pretend I was asleep, but she would always just come back........Boooooo!
As for the dreaded hospital food........ Mountain View isn't bad at all, as long as you are not on a restricted diet. You have a menu and you can order whatever you want off the menu. They cook what you want to order! I stuck to the things that I knew were hard to mess up, like chicken strips and french fries, and they were always pretty yummy. I would even order Pepsi, not bad for a hospital! The trick is to order early, because if not you will have to wait a while, because they do make food to order.
It is way better than the food at other hospitals in the area because it's not the food that they bring in on the tray and you lift off the lid and surprise....... you have no idea what the mystery meat is!
