Contacting a Patient

To locate a patient or waiting area, please ask a representative at the Information Desk in the main lobby.

Telephones
To call a patient room from outside the hospital, call 330-344-6000 or dial direct if you know the patient's extension. All patient rooms have telephones except ICU, CCU and CSU.

Public telephones are located in the main lobby and throughout the hospital. A courtesy phone in the main lobby will connect you to any patient room or internal extension. The use of cellular phones is not permitted inside the hospital. This means they should be turned off upon entering the hospital and outpatient buildings.

Telecommunications Devices for the Deaf (TDD) are available from the Telecommunications Office, and a public TDD telephone is available in the main lobby.

Condition Reports
For the condition of a patient, call Patient Information at 330-344-6100. Details concerning a patient's illness or medical treatment will not given and information on psychiatric patients is not released. In compliance with HIPAA regulations, condition reports and admission status for patients choosing to opt out of our patient directory will not be released.
