On 2/17, ****** ******* passed at this facility. He was admitted a month prior in the ICU after needing emergency surgery. He was in critical care and we flew down from St. Louis as soon as possible. The experience we had at Bayfront Health is nothing short of almost cruel. My wife and I were only able to stay for a week since we had to fly back to St. Louis for myself to have surgery and then we drove back down to Florida 7 days after I had surgery to see that the hospital had lost all of his belongings (including gifts we purchased him while we were there the first visit) between moving him from the ICU to the PCU. It seems while he was under care in the PCU he suddenly started declining rapidly and while his issue was going to ultimately be terminal, he deserved better care than he received. Come to find out, he didn't even have the blood clot leg things on for the entire time in the PCU until I mentioned something to physical therapy. His in room vitals were from the week before when we arrived. Luckily we took pictures to prove it since I'm sure his chart states different since we were also told that he didn't have any record of ANY belongings the entire time he was in the hospital. And the hospitals response was that it was his responsibility to be aware of his belongings (a man who was on so many medications and was so sick he thought he was on a pirate ship). 20 minutes after he passed, I was sternly lectured by the nursing supervisor in the hallway that he didn't come in with any belongings and basically called me a liar as they'd been reassuring us for the entire week prior they were looking for the items. Somehow a jacket appears that's his and thats it. It's now 2/22/2022. And we finally received an update as "not our responsibility, guess all of the items are lost". I wouldn't send my worst enemy to this hospital and truly I'm heartbroken at how poorly every aspect was handled. We are requesting compensation for the lost items and grievance.
