Thanks Tanner for saving my mother's life. She was in ICU for a little over a week and on the fourth floor another week. She was released today but the caregiver told me that she has bedsores all over her backside. What happened?

If I could give this hospital zero stars, it would reflect a more accurate rating. The nursing care was negligent. There were times I would have to call the nursing supervisor because my brothers blood sugar was dangerously low. I literally had to be the night charge nurse to check his blood sugar after it had been 70 and unchecked for 2 hours. He had a urinary catheter 5 days when it should have been removed the first day! I could go on and on but, I write this to warn others to avoid this hospital at all cost.

Urgent Care unit on HWY 27 has a very rude nurse practitioner. Attended relative recent Sunday afternoon. Accused patient of never having infection, even though lab result from same unit did report it. Stupid condescending attitude.

I've experienced Tanner on multiple levels. First was my Father, he was admitted to Tanner and they failed to include that he was diabetic on his chart despite multiple reminders. He was given non-diabetic foods and no insulin for an entire day. Then my mother was admitted and she was told to hook up her own leg constrictor (not sure of the exact terminology) because the nurses didn't have time. A friend of mine went to the ER for symptoms typical of appendicitis, but Tanner ER Drs missed it. After 3 visits she went to ... read more
