Business travelers have come to expect resource centers in hotels whenever they travel. Now, Memorial Hospital Miramar is bringing the service-oriented concept to its “guests” with its new Patient & Family Resource Center. Located on the third floor of the Miramar hospital, the Patient and Family Resource Center features three computer work stations, photocopier, fax machine and printer, as well as a family lounge area.
The new center will be open all day and night, seven days a week, mainly staffed by volunteers. The open schedule will allow the hospitals patients, relatives and visitors access to computers where they can search general information from health websites already bookmarked. Another computer program available at the center is CarePages, where users can create a confidential webpage to keep family and friends updated about their condition while hospitalize.
