Patient Safety - Communication

One of Hutchinson Area Health Care's goals is to encourage and support open and honest communication with you, your family, and your health care team.

  • We receive a variety of safety-related notices and updates from around the state.
  • We encourage you, your family, and our staff to speak up if there is a safety concern.
  • It is our policy to be open and honest with you and your family by informing you of the potential results of your care, including unexpected results.
  • We encourage you to designate a family spokesperson to help communication with your family and the health care team.
  • We randomly survey our patients to learn about their hospital stay experience. We review these surveys and make changes as a result of your comments. Your input is important to us and if you receive a survey, we encourage you to complete it.
  • We welcome the opportunity to discuss the care you receive. If you have comments, questions, or concerns, please contact us.
