Your Admission
The admission office is located in the main lobby of the hospital. Patients or their immediate family members are requested to provide insurance & information concerning hospitalization at the admission office.
If you have a pre-scheduled appointment for admission, it is important that you arrive on time, because your physician may have scheduled special tests for you (i.e., blood, x-rays, etc.) You will be asked to sign a consent form for admission to the hospital and for medical treatment. An identification bracelet for your wrist will also be prepared. At this time you will be taken to the nursing unit to which you are assigned. A nurse will interview you by asking questions about your general condition, diet, allergies, personal habits, and other factors that will apply specifically to the nursing care you will receive.
Federal regulations require hospital personnel to inquire as to the presence of an Advance Directive. This includes a living will or durable power of attorney with a healthier clause. Information on Advance Directives is provided to every patient upon admission.
Please feel free to ask the nursing staff any questions you have about our hospital, staff, or procedures. We will try to provide you with the room accommodations of your choice. However, on occasion, the accommodations you prefer might not be immediately available because of physician requests, special treatment procedures, or the medical needs of other hospitalized patients.
Call 478-454-3500 if you have any questions regarding your admission to Oconee Regional Medical Center.
