Choosing Fairfield Medical Center As Your Medical Provider

By Pamela Rivera


Fairfield Medical Center provides care for over 250,000 residents in the Lancaster, Ohio, area. Communities served are those located in the Fairfield, Hocking, Athens and Perry counties. The non-profit facility has grown a reputation as being one of the best and most trusted hospitals in the country. Many local residents volunteer their time to assist the staff at the hospital.

The staff at Fairfield are well qualified and possess the skills that are needed to provide the best treatment possible. The facility is a non-profit organization and helps every patient who needs service. It does not matter if a patient cannot pay, they will still receive the same professional care that anyone else will receive. There is always room for patients, there are over 222 beds available.

The facility has a 24 hour emergency care department. Nobody ever wants to be rushed to the emergency department, but sometimes unfortunate things happen that are out of our control. Patients who are rushed to the emergency room at Fairfield will be glad to know that the staff has all of the qualifications to best treat them. Besides the knowledge that the doctors possess, they are also provided with the latest medical equipment to help give the best possible outcome.

The hospital has many departments to suite a person's needs. A few of these departments are the orthodics department, palliative care department, occupational therapy department and radiology department. Specialized departments focus on patients who have a certain medical condition. Those who have pain in their back, shoulder or any other specific part of their body will want to visit the orthodics department. Cancer patients will also find the cancer care department useful. They provide timely diagnosis, advice, support and provide treatment when necessary.

Fairfield has a crisis intervention hotline available 24 hours a day for those who need somebody to talk to. The mental health crises phone line is useful for those who need crisis intervention, referrals or any other help or advice. Well trained experts answer the phone and give callers the most professional help possible.

Fairfield also understand that health education is important to the community. They offer health education classes that will teach people how to stay healthy. The classes also teach about warning signs and symptoms of some of the most common diseases. They teach that prevention is always best, but if a disease attacks someone, quick detention is very important.

Nutrition counseling classes are available for those who want to learn how to take care of their body. The importance of a person's diet is fully explained. Diabetes classes are also available, and emphasis is placed on teaching people how to live with the disease. People who attend the diabetes classes are not always necessarily people with the disease. Instead, they are people who will be taking care of a loved one who has diabetes.

There is a cosmetic and plastic surgery center at Fairfield. Laser treatments and body contouring services are available. Patients who are interested in getting a tummy tuck, an arm lift or contouring after massive weight loss services will find that the staff is helpful and will give the best advice possible.
