Halifax Health - Daytona Beach (FL)

1 /5 Elizabeth Henslee: The security guard at the front is extremely rude and it is unfortunate she is the first person you encounter. The front desk seems to be inept. No wheelchairs are offered regardless of condition, and simple things like hand sanitizer and masks are missing from the front desk. You do get seen quickly. Communication is lacking, and I do not recommend unless coming for a broken arm or something that does not require much time or diagnostic. Go to Orlando if you can.

5 /5 Angelia Juette: I had the BEST experience at Halifax Hospital for my surgery! Everyone was so kind and attentive. Everything was explained ahead of time and from the time I checked in til discharge , I knew exactly what was going to happen. Bella the night nurse truly listened to my concerns and made me feel cared for and was able to sleep. Amber the day nurse was so thoughtful. Even my husband commented on how clean and caring everything and everyone was during g my stay. Doctor Molpus kept myself and my husband informed before and during my stay. 100% recommend this hospital!!!

2 /5 Laurie: I came in with a family member with a really painful backache (10) I was told there were people ahead so it would be a wait. An hour goes by and we are finally seen. Kidney stones was the answer. They admitted him and put a stint in to relieve the pressure. He was told he could go home and follow up with primary. They kept him for the weekend for no reason. This was a waste of time. There is no Cafeteria but a high cost cafe with low quality food. The food is not fresh and so is its coffee.

1 /5 William Langston: Scary and Disgusting. They have no idea what they are doing. Started with waiting about 15 minutes in the ER with chest pains before they even asked my name and what I was there for because they were to busy dealing with drug addicts.They can’t even put a simple IV in correctly, they chose an inconvenient location and an uneducated start in which they tried to also allow a ton of air to also enter through the IV and into the veins until we made it clear that is unacceptable and even then they didn’t even know how to get them out. Which screams uneducated. They couldn’t even remember to take the clip off so the IV would even start. Between tests no one would start the IV back up again until we complained multiple times that it is still pinched. The quoted 15 minute long test in which I was told to leave my belongings behind turned into an two hour test to which I returned to an officer and a nurse standing in the room next to my belongings accusing of using the vapes stored in my purse. In which I did not, nor was I never questioned about it before I left the room, only after in which my belongings were left alone and unattended to be gone through. Why would security allow my purse to go through check in if vapes are not allowed and they are going to threaten people with fines and accuse them of using them when in fact they never were. PA introduced himself by putting the lights on when I was sleeping around 6am in the morning and without even giving me a moment to wake up, started asking me questions and when I could not tell him the results of my dead sisters autopsy, he continued to question me about her and clearly irritated by my inability to provide answers of what I don’t know.. as if I should know every detail about my dead sisters autopsy report and when I couldn’t answer he scoffed and walked away. PA told us after a phone call in 10 minutes we would then be getting discharged.. over an hour later he finally comes back to us and asks if we need a doctors note and then told us about the medication ordered and then walked away, another 30-45 minutes later we finally got discharged and were able to walk out of the building. The 15 supposed long minute test that turned into two hours long, also was very alone and frightening as for most of it I was alone because they told me they would bring my partner back to me and never did until a stranger saw me crying and offered their help. Not only is the staff very ignorant but they also are careless and show lack of empathy and disregard for safety and proper procedures. Even the simple ones like cleaning the IV port with alcohol before flushing , or even wash their hands once! I could go on and on, the pure simple fact is it’s completely a disgrace.
