Notary Public Notary public services are available to patients by contacting security at extension 6101. Telecommunication devices for the deaf People who are deaf or hearing impaired can communicate directly with the hospital through telecommunications devices for the deaf (TDD telephones). TDD units are located at the switchboard and in the Emergency Department to facilitate outside calls and communication between a patient’s home and the hospital. Deaf people needing assistance or emergency help can contact the hospital at 946-61HI (hearing impaired). While at Deaconess, deaf patients may request a TDD unit at no additional charge. Each unit is equipped with a light to indicate a call for the patient. Patients who are hearing impaired may request a control which will allow the sound volume of the room telephone to be adjusted. |
