Our Medical Director
and a group of on-call Physicians are available to serve our residents'
medical needs. Typically, each doctor visits the Home weekly and
we have a group of physicians on call twenty four hours a day.
Prior to Admission
If you wish to continue to see your own family physician, please
notify the Director of Care prior to admission. The family
physician must agree to continue in that capacity, and must sign a
formal "Attending Physician" agreement. You or your Substitute
Decision Maker must contact your family physician prior to admission to
ensure continuity of care and to ensure that s/he will provide medical
services at St. Patrick's Home in accordance with Ministry of Health
standards.
If you wish a meeting
with the Physician at any time after admission, please notify the RN so
an appointment can be scheduled. |
