community to workout, but is also
home to an expanded rehabilitation
and therapy program, which includes
in-house Physical, Speech and Occupational
Therapy — perfect for when
you’re recovering from a sports
injury or recuperating from knee or
hip surgery.
The hospital offers Phase I, Phase
II and Phase III Cardiopulmonary
Rehabilitation, providing the resources
patients need to truly live — and not
just exist — with heart or lung disease.
In addition, Union General Hospital
serves the community through a
variety of clinics — ranging from an
outpatient psychiatric center to a
walk-up clinic in the local Walmart.
CARE ON THE GROUND
AND IN THE AIR
Union General Hospital’s 18-bed
Emergency Room is staffed 24/7, and
air transportation is available to
quickly transport critically ill patients
to six metro area facilities. All citizens
of Union County are automatically
enrolled in the Air Methods Advantage
program, which covers out-ofpocket
expenses if they need to use
the medical helicopter stationed at
Union General Hospital.
A WIRED HOSPITAL
Union General Hospital is a proud
winner of HealthCare’s Most Wired
award in 2017, thanks in part to its
newly implemented patient portals,
which allow patients to access their
healthcare records remotely any time
and place they would like.
Even with this focus on facilities
and technology, Union General Hospital
often re ceives glowing reviews for
its “hometown” approach. Patients consistently
say they love the friendliness
of the staff as well as the fact that the
hospital is so clean and modern.
