To nurse: which two favilities do you mean? Only one I see of any merit is TMC. If you mean another hospital down US75 in the Metroplex, then maybe you're right, because I know you don't mean Wilson N. Jones. I don't know who this OOTO fellow is, but he hit a nerve that apparently you didn't want hit.

we are very fortunate to have two facilities to choose from. they both offer quality health care. i don't recall picking a hospital because of their cooking abilities...and btw...it is spelled 'staph' infections.

WNJ has employee drama, arrogant ER docs, gossipy nurses, and a so-called "cafeteria" that serves what is laughingly called food. Even the Jello is deep-fried. If that's a fine standard of health care, I'll take my business down the highway. Oh wait, I already do!

TMC is the filthist hospital I have EVER been to. I guess you get the quality you hire. Sit in a room and really look at the floors. Mounds of dirt in the corners and really a poor mop job overall. Staff infection anyone?

The services at TMC are the same as they have always been (since 1999) the certification has more to do with statistics and available services. WNJ offers the same services but does not hold the certification.

When will the new facility be open? I have delt with both hospitals here on a number of occassions and ABSOLUTELY prefer TMC!!! The other hospital was dirty, rude and very preoccupied among themselves (gossiping about each other)rather than the patients. I know I'm just one person; but I am SO happy that TMC will be opening a new facility a little closer to home! KUDOS to the fine people @ TMC!!!!

TMC got their level 3 back in 1999. When and why did they loose it?

At last, folks in the Sherman-Denison area have a chance of survival from nasty accidents that they never had before. Kudos to TMC, and can't wait until your new building is done!
