Infection Prevention

Infection prevention is a serious challenge facing healthcare organizations around the world. LewisGale and our parent company HCA are at the forefront of the ongoing effort to protect patients from infections during a hospital stay. Learn more about our corporate infection prevention programs.

eMAR & Bar Coding Technology for Medication Safety

At LewisGale we are keenly aware of our responsibility to ensure that medications are administered correctly and on time. When a medication is given to you at a LewisGale facility, it is checked and documented on a Medication Administration Record that’s stored in your electronic medical record. Our advanced Electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) & Bar Coding technology provides a system of checks and balances that helps ensure medications are dispensed safely and effectively. We encourage patients and their support team members to share in this responsibility. Learn more about safe medication use.
