If you were taking prescription drugs before your hospitalization and brought them with you, please show them to your nurse so he/she can record the information, and tell the doctor of your current prescriptions. We ask that you send your medications home with your family or friends after the nurse has reviewed them with you. Your physician will then order what medications you are to have while in our care, and our staff will administer them.

If you have been taking any herbal products or dietary supplements, there is potential that they may interact with medications your doctor may prescribe while you are in the hospital and when you go home. Please be sure to let your physician and your nurse know of any products you were taking while at home.
