Visit With Your Loved Ones Virtually

Keeping you, your loved ones and our care team safe is our priority. That may mean that due to your diagnosis or health status, it isn’t possible to spend time with others in person. We understand that staying in touch is important and can help you stay connected while avoiding the spread of infectious or communicable diseases.

We recommend using one or several of the following free apps: Facebook Messenger, Facetime, Google Hangouts, Google Duo, WhatsApp, or Skype. You and your loved one must download the same app(s). Patients have access to our Guest Wi-Fi network in the hospital; we will be happy to help if you need assistance.

Making the Details Easier to Manage

The most important task you have in front of you is your recovery. So when the logistics of managing your health care bog you down, it can take your focus off the thing that matters most: your healing. We’ve made sure that the resources and online tools you need are only a click away. We hope to make your experience with us as easy and convenient as possible so you can focus on recovering.
