To The Editor:
After many years of living here in Cape May County, I have heard and even experienced some of the horror stories associated with the local hospital. I am writing now to let residents know that things have, and are changing.
I was taken to the emergency room the other day. Let me tell you that I have not been treated better at any of the many hospitals I’ve been admitted to in my 70+ years of life. I walked into the desk and was asked a few questions. In less than five minutes, I was escorted to a bed in the ER where a nurse met me and began to take my vitals.
Before she even finished, the ER doctor was there to examine me and within 10 or 15 minutes, I was taken for a CT scan and given an EKG. When I returned from the CT scan, it was only a few minutes until the doctor came in to tell me that they would be keeping me and I would be taken upstairs as soon as a room became available.
During that wait I was never left alone more than about 15 minutes. The care and concern for me was exceptional, and I might add that it continued after I was transferred to the main hospital. I would like to offer a special thank you to Doctor Richard Troum, the ER doctors and nurses, and also to the nurses and doctors in the main hospital. They were all wonderful, and the care I received was fantastic.
I recommend our hospital to everyone who is in need of medical care.

Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
