For Your Safety and Security

 

For Your Safety and Security

We seek to provide the best possible care to our patients and foster a safe environment for healing. As a result, HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center maintains an active safety program training all personnel and conducting safety drills on a regular basis.
 

Speak Up Program

We encourage our patients to be active participants in their health care by using the “Speak Up” program: 

Speak up if you have any questions or concerns. If you don’t understand something, let us know.
Pay attention to the care you are receiving and ask questions when you don’t understand.
Educate yourself about your diagnosis, medical tests and your plan of care.
Ask a trusted family member or friend to be with you if you are unable to ask questions.
Know what medications you take.

Use a health care organization that participates in rigorous onsite evaluations.
Participate in decisions about your treatment. You are the center of your health care team.
