Never in my life have I been to a worse hospital then OU Medical Center Neurology Unit. My 82 yr old grandmother fell and cracked her skull open causing bleeding on the brain. She was airflighted from Duncan Regional Hospital, which is almost 2hrs away if you drive to OU Medical Trauma ward. They kept her roughly 10hrs and decided she was not a canidate for surgery on her head to relief the pressure off her brain. At this point my family was told she needed to go back to the nursing home (2hrs away) and they would not provide an ambulance to transport her. She cannot walk or talk due to the pressure on her brain or hold food down. She had to ride 2hrs in a single cab pickup sitting straight up with a cracked skull and bleeding brain because, this hospital refused her to ride in an ambulance in her condition. Does this sound like a caring hospital? Also, very unclean< smells horrible, and they leave meds in the patient rooms for anyone to get their hands on. HORRIBLE
