ADMISSIONS
With orders from your physician, who is a member of the medical staff
at Brownwood Regional Medical Center, you have been admitted to the hospital
for treatment. Non-emergency admissions are conducted through the Admissions
and Registration area at the main entrance of the hospital. The admissions
process is important in helping us learn information that is vital to
the care you receive. Some of the questions asked are mandated by law
and we appreciate your assistance in completing this process. Brownwood
Regional Medical Center does not discriminate on the basis of race, color,
national origin, age or handicap in admission or access to treatment
in its programs or activities.
On the day you are actually admitted to the hospital, please bring
the following important documents:
- Insurance identification cards
- Social Security number
- Medicare or Medicaid card
- Current medication list
- Information on next of kin or responsible parties
including name, address, phone number, and relationship
EMERGENCY ADMISSIONS
In the event of an emergency, hospital admissions will be completed
through the admissions and registration facilities located in the
Emergency Room. Members of your family or a close friend can be of
assistance in providing needed information to hospital personnel
if you are unable to do so.
VISITING HOURS
The key to a patient's well being is plenty of rest, and support from
family and friends. To help patients achieve a proper balance of
both, Brownwood Regional Medical Center asks that each patient be
limited to two visitors at a time. Children should not be left unattended
and visitors may be asked to leave a patient's room during treatments
or during a visit by the patient's physician. Visiting hours end
at 9 pm.
At the Women's Center
Visiting hours in the Women's Center (obstetrics unit) are flexible
to allow for family bonding. Extended family members and friends
are encouraged to visit between Noon and 3 pm and from 7pm to 9 pm.
Visitation of maternity patients is allowed for children who are
siblings of the newborn, so long as they are in good health at the
time of the visit.

Those wishing to visit patients in the Intensive Care Unit will be
limited to two people during the following times. Visiting hours are 7 days a week and children are welcome.
• 9 to 9:30am
