A Partnership That Benefits Everyone
Blue
Ridge Regional Hospital believes that patient and family-centered
care is the best approach to meeting our patients' healthcare
needs.
Patient and family-centered care means patients, their families, doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals form a partnership that benefits everyone.
A "family member"
is recognized as anyone who patients regard as significant in
their lives. Families are not considered visitors, but essential
participants in care and decisions that affect the total healing
of the patient.
The
components of family-centered care are respect and dignity; information
sharing; and participation and collaboration.
The
goal in caring for patients at Blue Ridge Regional Hospital is
the same for the physicians, medical staff and families—to
provide the best care and outcome for the patient. It takes a
combination of modern medicine, compassionate care, advanced technology, dedicated staff, as well as care provided by
families to reach the best possible outcome.
The staff at Blue Ridge Regional Hospital is dedicated to creating this type of experience for every patient and family member who enters our doors.
