Providence Medical Center Office

My crazy but wonderful mother was working late in her downtown Seattle office building on a Friday night and felt her heart do something weird. It was weird and painful enough that she decided to get help.
Unfortunatly as I mentioned she’s a little crazy (usually in only the best of ways!) so she decided to DRIVE herself to the FIRE STATION. Keep in mind that the station that she choose meant driving past Harborview, Virginia Mason, Swedish and several others!
She arrives at the fire station and mentions that her heart moves and is surprised by how quickly people start moving! They take her blood pressure and it is ²¹⁰⁄₁₀₀ (not so good!) and she is hospitalized for 3 days. She gets a stent in one of the arteries around her heart.
Staff — The best staff for adult-​patient yet.
Facilities — room is small but clean but filled with churchy stuff. Lacks a view. There isn’t a bed or fold down chair for family to spend the night with the patient. Not enough seating for our family of five. We had to re-​allocate from other rooms. Hospital itself is close to home and to Capital Hill.
Family Care — Small nourishment room is available on the floor that offers coffee, tea, juice, water, and Jell-​O.
Cafeteria — Good selection (in theory) but food is pricey and gross. A run to Pag’s and QFC were needed.
