Southside Regional Medical Center review: Security officials inappropriate behavior in a heart patient’s room

28th of August 2023 my husband was in the cardiac unit of hospital waiting for operation I taking video of him coming back from a procedure with two nurses pushing his bed into room when one of the nurses said I could not record I said I have recorded every single time my husband has been in a hospital she said it was against policy I told her Virginia was a one party state and it was legal for me to do this no hospital had ever stopped me she left the room and got security 3 of them burst in room where my sick husband was never asked me to step outside his room he was getting upset and one nurse named Donna a BSN was trying to calm him they asked was I filming I said yes and they said it was against hospital policy I said I have not seen any signs or been told that but in Virginia I can even film a doctor,nurses or staff secretly they said absolutely not and told me that they would THROW me out of hospital if I did my husband started crying thinking I was going to be put out I told him to not be upset I would take him with me if that happened and go to another hospital then I asked Donna the nurse did filming bother her she said NO many patients have videoed her We calmed my husband down so he wouldn’t go into a full blown heart attack don’t know if this interaction caused him to be more stressed going into surgery but in my opinion it did don’t know what I will do when I get him out may seek attorney advice these security guards should know Virginia laws and they should never bust with 3 of them in a heart patients room and threaten to throw the patients wife out
