Patient Education Patient education is available for various types of illness. In addition to a knowledgeable hospital staff, there is closed circuit television on channel 7 and brochures and more in-depth information through the medical library's computer system. The Eugene F. Hamer Memorial Chapel is located on the second floor of Sutton Hall. Our chapel is open 24 hours a day. Service schedules vary and are announced by the chaplain.
Chaplains are also available for personal visits.
During the course of your treatment at URMC, circumstances may arise that present ethical dilemmas to you, your family or your doctor. Advanced medical technology sometimes creates complex ethical choices, such as deciding about life-sustaining treatment or interpreting a living will. You and your family may want to discuss the implications of pursuing certain treatments. Or, if you may be unable to take part in your healthcare decision making, your family may find it difficult to make these decisions on your behalf. In such cases, a nursing supervisor or patient representative will assist you in any way possible.
