*******>>> HIPPA is a Federal Government law.<<< *******
This
means that a hospital cannot give out ANY information about a patient in the
hospital, without the patient’s permission. So, often, a visitor goes into the
hospital, hospital won`t tell him/her what room your love one in.
After the patient leaves the hospital, he/she complains that no priest or no deacon came to visit them! Priests/ Deacons/Others did not come because the hospital never told them!
If you or a loved one is in the hospital and wants a priest/deacon/others visit,
PLEASE have someone in the family contact them at the church
or Fr. Mark immediately!
