Registration/Discharge

Registration

The HRSRH currently has three registration offices to serve you at three sites. The offices are located just off the main lobby on the ground floor of the Laurentian Site, St. Joseph’s Health Centre and the Memorial Site. Please remember to bring your Ontario Health Card and pertinent insurance information with you when you go to register.

During your admission, you will receive an identification bracelet to be worn at all times. Your identification bracelet is our means of identifying you for treatment, medications and emergency purposes. Please do not remove it from your wrist.

Discharge

Your doctor will advise you when you may go home. Please make necessary transportation arrangements with a family member or friend. Ensure that you have all of your belongings and hospital cards, as well as aftercare instructions and prescriptions as needed. It is important that you understand all the instructions about your medications, diet, activity and return appointments. If you have any questions, a member of the health care team will assist you.

Academic Health Sciences Centre

The HRSRH is a teaching  hospital, affiliated with the Northern Ontario School of Medicine, Laurentian University, Cambrian College and Collège Boréal. During your visit to the hospital, you will be seen by a team of health care professionals, some of which may be in-training. Individuals in-training will identify themselves to you as learners or medical residents.

Working under the close supervision of hospital staff and attending physicians, they play an important role in the care and treatment of you and your family.

Do not hesitate to ask them any questions about their role in your care. If you have questions or concerns, please consult your physician.
