For Your Safety

Security
You will see uniformed security guards around our hospital and grounds. These security guards have responsibility for controlling traffic and short-term parking on the Hospital grounds. They are ready to lend assistance in any incident involving the personal safety of our patients, employees and visitors.


Personal Safety
As a patient at our hospital, we are concerned with your comfort and safety. Please ask for help when you need it. Bedrails are put up for your safety. Do not try to lower the rails or climb over them. The electronically operated beds are kept in the low position except when direct patient care is given. Do not attempt to get out of your bed when it is in the high position. If you see any potentially hazardous situations while in the hospital, please notify your nurse.


Fire Drills
Our hospital conducts fire drills in various patient areas so our employees will know exactly how to respond in an actual emergency. If a drill is conducted in your area, please remain calm and obey all instructions.
