When I woke up on the second day at Kindred, I became aware of my surroundings. I didn't even know I was sick or remember what happened. I was terrified because I didnt have a voice and could speak. The respiratory team quickly responded and they took time to explain what was going on, and reassured me that my voice would come back. After working with the team, I was able to communicate again, which feels absolutely wonderful. I can talk to my husband again! The staff are very very courteous and understanding. They empathize and listen to patients and they follow through. I've been in hospitals all my life and I've had a lot of experience working with nurses. That helped calm me and made me feel at ease. My biggest fear in a hospital is going to sleep and something happening and waking up alone with no help. At Kindred Clear Lake even in the middle of the night, when I need assistance, they are usually there in about 10 minutes which was reasonable for my needs and helped me feel safe. I highly recommend these nurses. I can honesly say the nurses here are in the top running. Respiratory services were also wonderful.
