Admissions Information

Arrangements for your hospital stay are made in advance by your private physician unless you are admitted from the Emergency Department. You may visit the hospital prior to your admission date for a preadmission interview if you are scheduled for an elective procedure. Pre-admitting reduces any delays that may be encountered in the admitting process. In order to help your family and friends contact you, your name and room number will be available on the daily census at our Information Desk. If you choose not to have your name listed, you may request this at the time of your admission.

It is important to know that if you choose this option, you will not receive any calls, mail, or flowers during your hospital stay. At the time of your admission, you will be asked to present insurance information for proper handling of your claim. Individuals being admitted under the provisions of Medicare or Medicaid must also present their health insurance claim cards.

Your signature will be needed on authorization and consent forms in order to properly process your medical bills. Your physician is a member of Campbell County Memorial Hospital's Medical Staff and will make necessary arrangements for tests, medications, procedures, or other special treatment that you will need. When necessary, your physician may consult with other healthcare providers within the hospital in order that your medical needs can be met. Your physician may find it necessary to consult with healthcare providers outside of the hospital, but he/she will ask for your consent prior to making contact with those individuals.

Your room assignment is based upon your admitting diagnosis and the bed availability on the day of your admission. All rooms are private with a few exceptions in the Intensive Care Unit, Nursery, and the Inpatient Behavioral Health Unit.
