Because we know how important it is for family and friends to stay in touch when
someone is hospitalized, Jefferson Regional Medical Center is pleased to offer
you the ability to send an e-mail message to a patient during their stay at our
hospital.
Kind words and thoughts can brighten a friend or loved one's day
when they are in the hospital. And with our FREE online form, you can send your
message to a patient quickly and easily, from anywhere in the world.
Simply fill in the fields and submit your message below. All fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.
Guidelines for Sending E-mail to Patients at Jefferson
- E-mail messages will be delivered to inpatients only. We are not
able to deliver messages to patients coming to the hospital for
same day surgery or outpatient testing.
- Patient e-mail is checked daily around 11 A.M. Monday through
Friday. Any messages received after this time will be delivered
on the following weekday. Messages sent over the weekend may not be
delivered until the following Monday.
- Messages are hand-delivered by Volunteer Services around
12 P.M. Monday through Friday only.
- Messages are only delivered to patients listed in the hospital
directory. If the e-mail recipient is no longer a patient of the
hospital or is not listed in the hospital directory, the message
will be deleted and destroyed without delivery.
- Unfortunately, we can only receive and deliver messages at this
time. We are not able to provide a response from the patient or
provide outgoing e-mail services for patients.
Although we respect message confidentiality, please be aware that your
message will be viewed, printed and delivered by a hospital volunteer.
The e-mail service should not be used for confidential communications
and is meant to be used solely as a method of sending encouragement to
patients in the hospital. Please do not include information of a
personal nature or include any medical or diagnostic information.
Messages of an inappropriate nature will immediately be destroyed without delivery.
Patients may be contacted directly by telephone by calling the main
switchboard at (412) 469-5000.
Greeting cards addressed to patients can also be sent via U.S. Mail to:
Jefferson Regional Medical Center
Attn: (Name of Patient)
PO Box 18119
Pittsburgh, PA 15236
Jefferson Regional Medical Center reserves the right to refuse delivery
of any e-mail greeting if we determine, for whatever reason, that the greeting
is inappropriate. In no event shall Jefferson Regional Medical Center be
liable to you or anyone else for any damages, fees, fines, penalties or
liabilities arising out of or relating in any way to the content
contained in your patient e-mail greeting.
Acceptance of an e-mail by this site does not mean that the intended
recipient is now, nor was previously a patient at Jefferson Regional Medical Center.
