Your Responsibilities As A Patient
At ParkwayHealth, we require that you provide accurate and complete information about your present medical condition and any infectious conditions you may have, including past illnesses, hospitalisations, medications, Advance Medical Directive (AMD), and other relevant details in order for you to receive appropriate and safe medical treatment. When obtaining copies of your own medical reports, please ensure you have received the correct information before you leave.
We ask that you and your family members remember that there are other patients in our Hospitals who also require rest and the attention of our staff; please consider the rights of others, and show respect and courtesy to all staff, doctors and nurses, and visitors. Please respect the Hospitals' equipment and facilities, treat such property with reasonable care, and be conscious in helping us reduce any wastage in precious resources such as water usage, etc.
Please do not bring any valuables with you, as you are responsible for the safekeeping of your personal possessions. It is your responsibility to pay your bills or make suitable arrangement to fulfill your financial obligations. By remitting your bill duly and on time, you will help the Hospital continue to focus on its work to serve other patients’ needs.
All your medications will be supplied by our Hospital Pharmacy and administered by our staff whilst you are in our Hospitals.
Please do not bring any medication from home unless you need to show it to your Doctor. You should however, bring along a written list of medications you may be on and show this list to your Doctor and the nurses in the ward. Any medication that you bring from home will not be administered and will be returned to you for safekeeping.
