Lakeland Hospital Niles
Your healthcare team is made up of physicians, nurses, technicians, therapists and assistants. Each team member is committed to meeting your healthcare needs and providing the finest care available. Your physician will assess your medical needs and then order appropriate tests, procedures, therapies or medications. You are assigned a nurse for each shift who is responsible for your care and ensures that your physicians’ orders are carried out properly. Other team members will get you to appointments on time, help you with eating and walking, provide special therapies to speed your recovery, and monitor and ensure your safety and comfort. For your safety, all Lakeland personnel wear identification badges that include the person’s name, photo and department. If you’re not sure who someone is, ask them to show you their identification badge.
