Safe and Secure
Making sure your experience is as safe, comfortable and pleasant as possible is important to us. HMC, unlike many facilities its size, maintains a skilled night-time protextive services staff to help provide a safe, secure environment for patients, visitors, and employees. The job of our protective staff is to patrol the campus, protect our buildings and personal property, secure doors, and also assist residents and patients to safety in the unlikely event of a fire emergency, and in severe weather. To speak with a protective services officer or to request assistance, call the Administration Department at 309.449.4296.
In Case of Emergency
Patients and visitors experiencing an emergency within the hospital should dial 9, then 9-1-1 immediately. They are encouraged to speak with the Director of their building for information on telephones, emergency pendants, evacuation routes, etc. Maintaining the safety of our residents, patients, and the staff is a top priority, and this is why HMC conducts regular drills. Additionally, HMC has an active Incident and Safety Committee which oversees our Disaster Plan.
