The Medical Staff
The physician who admits you is responsible for directing your care while you are in the hospital. He or she, as the coordinator for your treatment program, should be consulted if you have questions about your illness. Your admitting physician may request other physicians to see you on a consultation basis during your stay. You may not realize that some of these physicians are part of your care team, such as the Radiologist or Pathologist. If you have questions regarding any service, please contact Sara Armetta at (570) 853-3135 ext. 296
The Nursing Staff
24-hour nursing care is provided by a team of professional registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurses aids. There is a nursing supervisor on duty at all times. If you have concerns, please ask to see the nurse in charge of the unit for the time period of your concern, or ask for the Director of Nursing.
