2 /5 Jana Matney: I beg those of you who cherish your loved ones, DO NOT send anyone to The Atrium on Corinth, TX. My cousin was there for a short time and had a wound caused by bed sores. The staff at The Atrium did not treat her properly and things became worse until her family sent her back to Presbyterian in Denton, where wound care specialists were called in and she improved.
My close friend was sent to The Atrium ICU on March 11, 2013. I visited her that day, and she was communicating with me, laughing, and she just looked lovely. I was so happy and knew she was well on the road to recovery. Three days later, I received a call that her oxygen had been disconnected from her, and although warning signals of all kinds had to have gone off, she gasped for air while no one came until she coded blue. She was unable to be revived. Her family took her back to Presbyterian in Denton that day, and my dear friend is now brain dead. The Atrium have yet to tell the family a story that matches anyone elses story there about what really happened that day. The CEO of The Atrium is also not cooperating. This was my close friend, a mother, a grandmother, an educator, and friend to so many. But, the people at The Atrium killed her because they just didnt care.
If I can save one person by this posting from dying or suffering, then it is worth it. At a local hospital where my mother volunteers, when someone goes to The Atrium, the comeback is always, "So, they are sending that person there to die, eh?" Yes, apparently they are.
Thanks so much for reading, and God bless your loved one.
