Before You Arrive
Pre-Admission Procedures
Gilmore Memorial Regional Medical Center wants you to be involved
with your health care. We understand the hesitation of our patients
because they are not sure what to expect when they are scheduled for a
procedure. You always have the right to ask questions and we encourage
you to take an active role in your healthcare.
Insurance Cards
Please remember to bring your insurance card with you for
registration. Our admitting staff copies insurance cards to facilitate
follow up with insurance carriers and to protect you. Please have your
cards available to speed up this process.
When You Arrive

Current Medications
On admission you will be asked many questions by our staff that will be
used to plan your care. All of your current medications will need to be
brought to the hospital for identification and then sent home.
Going Home
Your Discharge Procedures
Upon receiving an order from your physician for discharge, the nursing
staff will initiate discharge procedures. This process includes ensuring
all tests have been completed, follow up appointments have been set up
as ordered and appropriate, and education material has been obtained.
Post Hospital Care
If you have any questions or concerns about your care after
hospitalization you may contact your doctor. Written instructions
including a list of medications will be provided at the time of
