Selecting quality health care services for yourself, a relative or friend requires special thought and attention. Knowing what to look for and what to ask will help you choose a facility that provides quality care and best meets your needs. While we believe that Community Howard Regional Health can and will address the majority of the needs of your family and loved ones, we know that you may not always have the opportunity to choose the hospital from which you receive care, especially in an emergency. However, when you or a loved one has a planned admission to the hospital, obtaining some important information first can help make your hospital experience a positive one.
