“My adventure started at the free-standing advent health ER on US HWY 19. The staff there was amazing. I went there for upper right abdominal pain. After testing and ultra sounds it turned out my gallbladder was the culprit. As a pretty healthy 22 year old this was a shock, I thought maybe I was being dramatic, and I almost opted into being discharged. But my body was telling me something was wrong, so I chose to be transferred to advent health North Pinellas. Upon arrival I was greeted by my first nurse, Lorin. She was on the 8th floor with me. I immediately felt a sense of comfort from her, as I was scared of what was coming for me. I only had Lorin for a couple hours that night before my night nurse Chris came in. Chris was my nurse for two nights, and he offered me support and comfort during a scary time for me. I was alone during the night as my family went home, but Chris always made me feel like I was safe there. When I found out I needed to have my gallbladder removed, it was a pretty shocking bit of news to receive. Chris talked me through what happened when he got his gallbladder removed, and gave me some peace of mind. The next day, I was still on the 8th floor and my nurse was Becca. Becca was so sweet, caring, and showed me empathy during a very scary time. She was gentle and made sure I was ok before doing anything else. She even gave me a hug when her shift ended and she was leaving me. I had Lorin as my nurse on the day of my surgery. She was able to get me some medicine to help me calm down and she truly cared about me. She was so thoughtful and kind. She even checked on me after surgery when I got moved to the 7th floor. I had two nurses on the 7th floor, Liz and Roz. They were both amazing and I can’t say enough good things about them. They helped me after my surgery and took great care of me. I can’t get over how amazing the staff was here, from the housekeeping, to the transporters, to the techs, to the nurses, to the doctors. The tech on the 8th floor, Nikki she was so sweet and amazing too! There were a couple other techs , i don’t remember their names but they were great. Even the radiologist looked out for me during my CT scan and helped me advocate for myself! I don’t remember her name but she was so nice! I felt supported and helped by every single one of them. This was a very scary experience for me as a young person who had never even been admitted into a hospital before and now I was having to have surgery. I wish I could personally thank and hug every single person that took care of me during my stay from 2/22/23-2/25/23 on the 8th floor and the 7th floor. And to the surgeon, Dr. Frattini and the surgical staff including the pre-op and post-op staff, I was on a lot of medication so I do not remember everything but I do remember you guys being kind and careful. Dr. Frattini did a great job and treated me as if he had known me forever. He was personable and caring. This whole experience was something I never imagined myself going through, especially not at this point in my life. It can feel scary and lonely but the staff here at advent health never made me feel scared or alone. I felt a sense of comfort and security here. Thank you!”
