Providence Hospital

Story

Providence Hospital is a 349-bed high-rise hospital in the U.S. city of Mobile, Alabama. The hospital tower was completed in 1987. The building sits at the center of a 277acre campus, it rises approximately 170ft and 11 stories. It was designed by noted American architect Bertrand Goldberg, best known for the Marina City complex in Chicago.HistoryProvidence Hospital was founded in 1854 by the Daughters of Charity from Emmitsburg, Maryland. Mobile's first bishop, Michael Portier, had asked the first four Sisters to come to Mobile in 1841 to care for orphans, following an outbreak of yellow fever. By 1852 the Sisters were under contract to administer the City Hospital of Mobile. This ended in 1854 when they resigned from the hospital. Their resignation came during a period of high anti-Catholic sentiment in the city, provoked by the local Know Nothing political movement. A board of local citizens was formed on August 15, 1854 to build a new hospital for the Sisters. They completed a new 60-bed hospital in 1855 at the intersection of Broad and St. Anthony Streets.

My wife gave birth there a month ago. I have nothing but good things to say about the staff and the overall treatment received. Everyone was polite, respectful and very attentive to the needs of my wife and child. Their food nutrition service is excellent too. My son was born prematurely so he spent a couple of weeks at the nursery, we never had an issue spending a little time with him when possible, the nurses and doctors always kept us updated on his health status. It was a pleasant and positive experience and I am very thankful for everything. Blessings.

Brought my fiancee in for bladder retention following his bladder ca. The wait time was less then a hour and we were brought back to the urgent care where the staff was amazing. The Nurse Practitioner Benjamin Clark and his staff nurses were so amazing, kind and professional. We were able to leave with the correct diagnosis, supplies, medication and discharge instructions in a very timely matter. The entire experience was positive and a highly recommended ER staff. Thank you all for a very wonderful experience.

I attempted to call the Hospital this morning to check on my grandfather in the ER. After the first transfer, they had me on hold twice, then after telling them his information for the 3rd or 4th time, they told me they could not help me or give me any information over the phone per their policy. Then they lied to my mother and told her I was cursing them out on the phone! Can You Believe?!! No wonder this hospital has such a low star rating. The people who work there are rude and unprofessional. If anything worse happens to him in their care, I will sue. Look at all these 1 star rated bad reviews! Should have enough for class action lawsuit by now if there isn't one already. What's truly Amazing to me, is that this place is allowed to continue running as a medical facility with all of their flaws, rude bedside manner, and from what I have read, illegal practice. This is America, not some third world country. I would expect so much more from our health and care industry. Just sad! They should all be ashamed of themselves.

Most unorganized hospital we have ever been in. My wife just had a baby there and it was a terrible experience. The vibe here is that you are a burden. It took the anesthesiologist two tries to get the epidural in. This put my wife in extreme pain. After having the baby while moving my wife back to her room they tipped the IV cart over and if it wasnt for me being there, it would have fallen right on my wife and new born. I was lucky to react and catch it. Oh and they forgot to put the security bracelet on my newborn. So anyone could have walked into the nursery and took her without anyone knowing. I suggest if you are in the Mobile area and need a hospital, go to Springhill.

My husband recently had a hip replacement completed by Dr. Baird. Our entire experience has been exceptional. The pre-testing, pre-admit process was flawless. The nursing staff the day of surgery was excellent. We were in a room before 2:00 pm. All nursing staff during the 3-day stay was excellent. The P.T staff was wonderful. They had all equipment and supplies ready for the day of our discharge and discharge was quick! We have no complaints! All compliments!
