Inpatient Guide Discharge

When It's Time To Go Home ...

Your physician will decide when you should leave the Medical Center and will write a discharge order when that time comes.

Discharge time is usually before 1 p.m., which gives you plenty of time to prepare to leave and allows us the opportunity to prepare the room for the next patient. We will help you if you have special discharge needs such as transportation or accommodations at another healthcare facility.

Discharge instructions will be provided to you. Should you have any questions about any aspect of your discharge, talk with your nurse or physician.
