Patient Rights and Responsibilities
In accordance with South Pointe Hospital's mission and values, as well as applicable laws, accreditation standards, CMS Conditions of Participation, the Hospital Staff and its Medical Staff are committed to providing services on an individualized basis to every person who is sick or injured, regardless of age, race, religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, physical or mental challenges, or sources of payment.

Each Hospital employee and Medical Staff member is responsible for ensuring all patients are afforded their rights at all times. A patient or patient's legally authorized representative shall exercise these rights while receiving care or treatment in the facility without coercion, discrimination, harassment, abuse or retaliation. Any discriminatory behavior by the Hospital Staff will lead to corrective action.

These rights and responsibilities also apply to pediatric patients, parents and/or guardians of such patients. The following is a summary of your rights as a patient, which are protected and promoted by South Pointe Hospital.
