The front desk staff were friendly and engaged. The nurse trying to place my IV did not listen to me when I said something was not right my whole hand was tingling and it was VERY painful. She tried to tell me it was ok, but it was not okay, I asked her to please remove it and she did I asked if I could look at my hand and she said it is out and there is no blood. My hand was tingling and I asked if I could see it and she said she was going to place a second one in my forearm I told her again I was not ok and that I felt dizzy, she told me it was ok and to close my eyes and take some deep breaths. The nurse anesthetist was on my left side of the bed and I told him I was not only and that I felt dizzy, he told me to stop talking and focus on my breath. I fainted from the pain in my right arm while the nurse was trying to place the second IV and when I regained consciousness the nurse anesthetist said to me “that was quite a production, is this what you normally do? We will try to get you fluids and the only way to do that is with an IV”. Another nurse came and placed IV in my left hand and all went well after that. As a patient, I felt like the two employees did not listen to me when I told them I was not okay and that I felt dizzy. The rest of the staff was kind and fortunately I will not need to go back there for 10 years.
