Patient Representative and Problem Resolution
If there is a problem, discuss it with your nurse. If this is not your choice, speak to the Nurse Manager/designee, who is responsible for what happens on the nursing unit. On evenings, nights, weekends and holidays, speak to the Nursing Supervisor.

You may also call the Patient Representative, who is available to assist our patients during regular business hours. The Representative is a professional trained to act on your behalf as an advocate.
