I was pretty skeptical about bringing my husband to the ER at SCH,with all the experiences I've had and others have had,I was concerned that my husband wouldn't get the attention he needed! Boy,was I wrong! Upon entering the ER,he was immediately sent to the back,nurses tended him til the dr. Could come. The ER was great and had a genuine concern. He was admitted into the hospital,and all I can say is the staff,down to housekeeping and cafeteria were all great! The services have been awesome! He's still in since Monday,we've met the who,e shift and they are just wonderful and experienced and have a professional manner about them! I definitely will not hesitate to bring him or another family member there again. Thanks to you all for the wonderful care my husband is getting during his stay there!

This was my first time ever using this hospital. I had out day back injection. From the time I entered the hospital until the nurse wheeled me to my car I had a great experience and would not hesitate if I ever needed to go back. The staff are so friendly and comforting people. I felt so relaxed being taken care by them. Also I love my Dr. Dominick Grieshaber. He is so friendly and makes you feel safe as he explained exactly what would take place during my procedure. I felt safe & relaxed in good hands with everyone who attended to me. & that also included the receptionist.I would never hesitate to go back if ever needed. Thanks again to all at St. Charles Hospital for making my experience a great one with each & every one of you. Proud to sign my name, B. Acosta

This is the 2nd time I've had to see the ankle specialist due to accidents. I was always welcomed with open arms they also help accommodate anything that can help you be comfortable. Ashleigh Chatelain has been my nurse both time. She is a real joy and a bright light to be around. Turns the most painful days to bearable. She understands your pain and make you feel safe like a mother would making you know she will get down to the bottom of this and help you communicate to the doctor during all your pain so everyone understands. Real big key to helping me. Any questions you have ask; she will have a answer or find it for you. Extremely professional caring nursing staff!!!! I love it

Got my first covid shot here. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Was scheduled and everything was on time no waiting walk in and out in about 25 minutes. That's with a 10 to 15 minute wait after the shot in case of bad reaction.

room nurse and check in staff was great, The MD was unconcerned nor was he briefed on care already give to my child. Was more concerned that my child was unvaxxed then the symptoms he had at the time of visit. My son’s face was bruising and nose bleeding, he claimed he didnt know why and his solution was to just give my son a steroid shot. Which was already given upon arrival. He did not screen the record of what was already done. One of the desk nurses was very rude and made sure I knew that me being allowed in the room with my 18 year old was a privilege. We were sent home with a clearance to return to school, without his Covid results which were later positive.

I used to be afraid to go here before Ochsner took over. Since then, the have improved both the quality of the facilities AND the quality of the healthcare providers. Having it tied into the Ochsner system makes bouncing between hospital and doctors easier. Thumbs up from me!
