Preregistration
For your convenience, a staff member may call you so that
you can register ahead of time. Upon arrival, you still will need
to stop in the Registration/Admitting Department briefly, in order
to sign paperwork.
Patient
admission
Many patients are admitted through the Registration/Admitting
Department, (614) 566-5217, on the first floor. In special cases
(e.g., an emergency, patients coming from another hospital, patients
transported by ambulance or helicopter) patients are admitted
through the Emergency Department. In these cases, the admitting
staff will get the information from either you or your family.
Outpatient care
If you are coming to Riverside for an outpatient procedure, test or treatment, your doctor's office will give you instructions about the time to arrive, where to go and how to register. Depending on your procedure or test, you may want to have a family member or friend drive you home.
