               MEDICAL EMERGENCIES

               Your Agency Name does not operate an emergency service and does not want
               you to waste valuable time should you have a serious medical emergency.

               In case of a serious medical emergency, call 911 or take the patient to
               the hospital emergency room.
               There are instances when an emergency room visit or hospitalization can be
               avoided. If you call us at the first sign of a problem, we can often prevent you
               from being readmitted to the hospital. Our staff will work with you and your
               caregivers to identify your treatment options.
               Please refer to our Emergency Care Plan section of the  booklet for
               additional information.

               Please  call our  office if  you are admitted to the hospital  or taken to the
               emergency room.
