WelcomeThe mission of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center is to serve our patients compassionately and effectively, and to create a healthy future for them and their families. Wheth-er you are referred to the medical center for specialty care, diagnostic testing, outpatient treatment, or admission, Beth Israel Deaconess staff will work closely with you and your doctor to coordinate your care. Under your doctor’s guidance, the staff will share and discuss tests, specialists’ opinions, treatment options, and recommended next steps. This ongoing communication among you, your doctor, and Beth Israel Deaconess staff results in the high quality of care that you deserve.

Patients come to our medical center from around the cor-ner and around the world. We feel our obligation to provide access to care goes beyond our front doors. For instance, our network includes more than 200 community-based primary care physicians in twenty three communities throughout Eastern Massachusetts. We also operate regional medical care facilities in Chelsea, Lexington, and Dorchester, and work with hundreds of other physicians throughout the region who choose to refer patients to a Beth Israel Deaconess specialist for care.

ExpertiseAs a major teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Deaconess is world-renowned for humane patient care, leading bio-medical research, and excellence in teaching. The medical center offers clinical expertise in the following areas: Cardiology, Obstetrics, Women’s Health, Orthopedics, Cancer Care, Psychiatry, General Surgery, Transplant Surgery, Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, Neurosurgery, Neurology, Urology, Dermatology, and Trauma Care. Beth Israel Deaconess also fea-tures intensive care units for medical and respiratory problems, surgical trauma, coronary care, and neonatal care.

Our MergerIn 1996, Beth Israel Hospital and Deaconess Hospital merged to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The new medical center consists of two companies, East (formerly Beth Israel Hospital) and West (formerly Dea-coness Hospital), that function as one entity with one set of values and patient care philosophy. As a patient, you will receive the excellent care for which both former hospitals were long known.



Your Rights As a PatientBeth Israel Deaconess Medical Center supports the Massachusetts law known as the Patient’s Bill of Rights. This was modeled after the Statement on the Rights of Patients, published by the former Beth Israel Hospital in 1972. The statement emphasizes Beth Israel Deaconess’s commitment to respect every patient’s individuality and dignity, and reinforces the belief that you have the right to know about your illness and to participate in all decisions that affect your well being.

In addition, the Patient’s Bill of Rights underscores your right to confidentiality. Information about your medical condition is confidential and is not released without your consent. For a copy of Your Rights As a Patient, please call Corporate Communications at 617-667-4431.

The Massachusetts proxy law allows you to designate an agent or proxy to make decisions for you in the event you are not capable of making them yourself. A copy of the proxy form can be obtained at the Social Work Department by calling 617-667-3421.

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status. If you feel you have been discriminated against, we have procedures in place to address your concerns. Please call us at the Office of Health Care Quality at 617-667-2624.

East Campus

Inpatient If you have not been pre-registered by our physician or referring specialist, you may be asked to go to the admitting area. The staff at the information desk in the Feldberg lobby will direct you to the appropriate area.

Outpatient When you call to make your ambulatory/outpatient appointment, you often will have the opportunity to give some basic registration information over the telephone. The completion of the registration or any update of the information will take place in the unit where you are scheduled to have your appointment. You will not need to stop at any registration desk or area when you come for your appointment.

The information and registration staff can direct you to the appropriate area.



Canceling an AppointmentTo cancel or reschedule an appointment, please call the physicians office, department, or unit that you are scheduled to visit.

Call the main number at 617-667-7000 for the telephone number of a specific area of the medical center.

Emergency Services Berenson Emergency Unit 330 Brookline Avenue/East Campus Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For more information, call the Health Information Line at 617-667-5356.

Staffed by a team of registered nurses and board-certified emergency physicians, the Emergency Department handles medical and surgical emergencies.



When You ArriveYou will be seen by the triage nurse who will evaluate the urgency and nature of your illness or injury. If you have a primary care physician, be sure to inform the nurse of your doctor’s name to ensure continuity of care. Whenever possible, you should notify your primary care physician before coming to the Emergency Department. After you are seen by the triage nurse, a member of the registration staff will ask you or someone who is with you for registration information. You will then be seen by a team of healthcare professionals who will assess your condition, order any necessary diagnostic tests, and provide the necessary treatment during your stay. Test results will be discussed with you, and you will be given instructions about follow-up care. When appropriate, your primary care physician will be contacted.

If You Are AdmittedYou will be assigned a bed as quickly as possible on the appropriate unit and campus. Please inform the Emergency Department if you were previously treated at the former Beth Israel Hospital (East Campus) or the former Deaconess Hospital (West Campus). This in-formation will allow your care team to access the most current information regarding your condition, and if possible, may enable staff to treat you at the location with which you are familiar. Remember, however, that we are now one combined medical center at both campuses. Once you are transferred to a unit and bed, a new team of providers will continue your day-to-day medical care and decide when you are able to return home. Before you are discharged, you will receive instructions about follow-up care.



Walk-In Visits and Travel Clinic Brown Medical Walk-In Unit 330 Brookline Avenue/East Campus Weekdays: 10.00 AM – 8.00 PM Weekends and most holidays: 10.00 AM – 6.00 PM 617-667-3759

If you feel ill but do not need emergency care, please call your primary care provider. If he or she is not available, you can see a care provider at the Brown Medical Walk-In Unit. The walk-in unit allows “walk-in” patients with non-urgent illnesses or injuries, such as a sore throat, upper respiratory infection, ear ache, or sprained ankle, to receive care rapidly and efficiently. If you are a member of a managed care plan, check your plan’s policy regarding approval for a visit and co-payments.

Travel Clinic Kennedy Building, Sixth Floor/West Campus 1 Autumn Street Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 9.00 AM – 12.00 PM by appointment only 617-632-7706

The Travel Clinic provides immunizations, medications, and advice for international travelers. Travelers have access to a full spectrum of health advice and travel counseling, and can receive follow-up care.



Insurance Payments for Emergency or Walk-In ServicesWhenever possible, to ensure continuity of care, call your primary care provider before you come to the medical center. Many insurance companies and managed care plans require you make a co-payment when you visit the walk-in unit or emergency department. They also may require prior approval by the company or by your primary care provider.
