What happens if I have to go to the hospital?

Appropriate transportation (with family, a transport service, or ambulance) will be arranged by staff, and following evaluation or treatment, GE staff will re-assess prior to your return. If it is determined that return to GE would not be in the best interest of the resident, assistance to find appropriate placement would be given by staff.  back to top

Can my family visit anytime and take me out for a day or for a weekend?

Families are welcome - and, in fact, encouraged to visit GE at anytime. If visit if over a meal time, and family would like to stay, we ask that you notify GE staff prior to visit so that we may plan for adequate amounts of food. Whenever a resident has a chance to visit family or friends away from the facility, notification to our staff prior to leaving, will ensure that needed medications and other supplies will be ready to go with the resident. back to top
