It is our goal is to communicate with you as quickly as possible following the admission of referred patients. The clinicians will contact you by your preferred communications methods (by phone, email, text, or any combination you prefer). The clinicians will strive to communicate throughout hospitalization and when a significant change occurs in the patient’s care, including changes in the diagnosis or treatment regimen or the death of the patient. Additionally, you will be notified at the time the patient is discharged from the hospital, and discharge summaries will be emailed/faxed to you promptly.

If you have not received the level of communication that you would desire, please contact the clinician on the case to seek more information:
