Barton remodels patient rooms

Patients at Barton Memorial Hospital are staying in renovated and remodeled private and shared rooms.

Barton’s goal is to provide all private rooms, but some are designed to accommodate two patients to meet an increase in patient admission on any given day. Located on the second floor of med-surge and orthopedics, each room provides private hotel-like accommodations.

The rooms gleam with warm paint colors, flat screen televisions, beds, curtains, chairs, cabinetry, flooring and Lake Tahoe artwork. Each room also has a newly remodeled bathroom all completed with patient comfort in mind.

    Still just lipstick on a pig… They have not improved their patient care or employees!

    I beg to differ with you “Patient”! I have seen an increase in customer service at their front desk, and at their admitting desk and have never had a bad patient care experience for myself or my family. The majority of the employees are wonderful, of course there are always a few bad eggs, but fewer than in past years. We are lucky to have such a nice hospital in our small town.

    I beg to differ with you “Patient”! I have seen an increase in customer service in all areas and have NEVER had a bad patient care experience for myself or my family. The majority of the employees are wonderful, of course there are always a few bad eggs, but they don’t seem to last long. We are lucky to have such a great hospital in our small town. And my highest grade goes to the Infusion center which has been caring for me for the past number of years they are the best!

    I’ve had good and bad experiences at Barton however that comes with any business. Having a cronic illness I know that I will get great care because they know all about it and it’s the best part of a small town

    The money was burning a hole in their pocket.

    Staff has always been great when I’ve had to go.
