BridgePoint Continuing Care Hospital- WJMC Campus

I was sent to Bridgepoint by way of University Medical Center (UMC) after having a by-pass surgery on my left leg, and eventually having the tip of my left toe amputated due to infection in the bone which turned my whole body septic! I was placed on strong antibiotics and eventually sent to Bridgepoint to finish the regiment of antibiotic prescribed! While at this facility, I was supposedly to be under the care of Dr. Russo? I Doctor who never physically examined, questioned, or even once talked to me about anything I was subsequently dealing with considering I had just died twice while at UMC? This Doctors lack of intervention with me should be considered Criminal? And I can only imagine the way he treated the people who are deemed incapable of defending their own best interests? I just

Bridge Point Hospital of Marrero: A Little Hospital with Enormous Impact ! Thinking back to the first nurse I was assigned, Nurse Paula, I had never met a person with such through query to assess all my needs in hospital. She made sure I understood what had been afforded me at the hospital. “You can use the phone to order your dinner,” she added, topping off a cold, crunchy ice filled pitcher with refreshing water. “How is your bed?” “Do you need any more pillows”? “Are you comfortable”? Whoa. Rapid fired acknowledgement of what I might feel the need to have before I asked. I loved it. I came to find that the Head Charge Nurse Ms. Tre’ made rounds every night, just to say “hi” and inquire about my care and condition of the day. From day one, despite whom was my assigned nurse,

The care provided here is poor. My mother went here for recovery after her transplant and ankle surgery. The transplant failed. The wound care doctor here did not see her until she was being discharged. I would not recommend anyone to go here for recovery.

Terrible. I'm trying to discuss my issues with the doctor and he just walks out the door.not to mention the fact that I was trying to explain my level of pain and he gives me about less than half of what I legitimately need.then it took me about everything I had to stand up and go to the door to yell for him to say that I was not done and he just says you will have to wait till I come back through.i am actually dying and the doctor shows now sympathy at all. I am leaving as soon as I figure something out. This place is awful. I would not send my dog here.

I currently know some one in here and what they are experiencing is awful the staff is not following orders when they tell the doctor the doctor ask them why didn't they tell them ...so the patient suppose to tell the staff to follow doctors orders and if they dont what ? Their machine started going off at 6pm they called and no one came until 9pm so they had to endure the ringing for three hours and than the staff has the nerve to say why the other shift didn't do it so now the game is to put it off on the other ..ind you this person is paralyzed and with no assistance ...I advise anyone if you or your family have to go here please go somewhere else. Update...2/19/2026 i can stress enough do not send family here ... all management hsve to say is sorry ..you have workers who do not care n
