If you need trauma care go to Renown, Saint Mary’s has better personal care. Northern Nevada Medical Center has the best service (all based on my experience with taking relatives to each of them). Also based on seeing a guy shoot himself in the head at Saint Mary’s a few years back and their having to send him to Renown due to not having the ability to treat him.

Saint Mary's does not offer any services it deems unCatholic like abortions, abortion pills, etc. but yes, they do work on Sunday, go figure.

Neither, take the 25 minute drive to Carson Tahoe Healthcare in Carson City for the best service and expertise.

Do you think Carson Tahoe is better? I have heard mixed reviews.

I stayed in both St. Mary's and Renown for 3 weeks each after a major car accident I had... (and I used to work at Carson Tahoe).

I found my stay at St. Mary's much more comfortable. The staff was so friendly and my family enjoyed the hospital amenities more than Renown's. (better food, more comfy chairs, laid back environment). I got the feeling of *rush rush rush* and *money money money* at Renown while St. Mary's seemed more focused on my comfort and overall rehabilitation. Every night, the nurses at St. Mary's would come into my room and play board games with me and talk to me. That is the kind of hospitality I would want for a family member, you know? They even bought me a goodbye t-shirt when I left.

No hospital stay is nice, but St. Mary's made being deathly ill not so horrible.

Carson Tahoe is a newly built and beautiful hospital, but it is more expensive to stay at! The rooms are truly gorgeous, but the staff seems irregular (high turnover).
