Hospitalist

After a visit to your doctor or emergency department, your condition may require a stay in the hospital. From admission through discharge, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the Hospitalst team will coordinate your care. They will remain in close contact with your primary care physician so that he or she is informed of your admission, hospital course and subsequent discharge.  Their objective is to make your stay as comfortable and successful as possible.

As a patient, you receive the attention you need from a physician whose practice is based solely at Hannibal Regional Hospital. You’ll have the benefit of a physician-led team, always there for you and your family. Even in the middle of the night, one of the Hospitalists will be available to respond to any changes that occur. When you are discharged, your care and treatment will be returned to your primary care physician. It’s really as simple as that: always there, always ready.

No one wants to be in the hospital, but when it happens, it’s comforting to know that our qualified Hospitalists are available to meet your needs. If you have questions, please contact the Hospitalist Service Coordinator at 573-629-3342.
