AMGH is the largest provider of health care services in Huron County, which includes the delivery of primary care and a range of secondary level acute care to its broad catchment population. AMGH is a full service community hospital providing on-call coverage for internal medicine, general surgery, diagnostic imaging, laboratory, anaesthesia and obstetrics. In addition, the emergency department has a physician on duty 24 hours a day, seven days per week.
The hospital is an active treatment facility operated under the direction of a 14 member Board of Directors. AMGH currently operates 22 beds providing acute, emergency, obstetrics, ambulatory care and is operating under a four year accreditation award granted in 2022.
AMGH is a Schedule 1 facility with a 20 bed inpatient psychiatric unit that provides care for all of Huron County as well as providing services for some bordering communities in Bruce, Grey and Perth Counties. AMGH also offers full-time Huron Community Mental Health Services located in Clinton, Exeter, Goderich, Seaforth and Wingham. They are also a satellite service to London Health Science Centre providing support for eating disorders. In addition to these community programs, AMGH provides the Regional Intensive Case Management Program serving mentally ill patients throughout Huron and Perth Counties.
Medical practitioners on active staff include two general surgeons, four psychiatrists, one internist, one OB/GYN and 16 family physicians (three general practitioner anaesthetists provide anaesthesia coverage). These physicians, supported by visiting specialists primarily from London, provide services for a
wide range of outpatient clinics including general surgery, gynaecology, internal medicine/cardiology and obstetrics. Three general practitioner obstetricians provide obstetrical service. AMGH is a designated Telestroke site and home to onsite hemodialysis as a satellite unit of London Health Sciences Centre.
Other community services provided at AMGH include respiratory investigations, a wide range of diagnostic imaging procedures, laboratory, diabetic education, nutrition, inpatient physiotherapy, speech and language pathology, pulmonary function testing, holter monitoring, echocardiograms, stress testing, ECG and social work for inpatients. An active ambulatory care program is maintained and includes day surgery and outpatient services. Those patients in need of more specialized care and treatment are primarily referred to care facilities in London or Stratford. While each program is unique in its own area, together they form a hospital team dedicated to compassionate, high quality and family-centered care.
AMGH is a fully accredited hospital with Accreditation Canada, the leader in raising the bar for quality in health. Their mission is to drive quality in health services. They help organizations across Canada to evaluate and improve the quality of service they provide to their patients. AMGH strives to continually improve by participating in the accreditation process and by meeting or exceeding the identified standards and practices.
The Board of Directors, Physicians and Staff of AMGH are committed to patient safety and fostering a safe environment for patients and their families. In the interest of maintaining its high quality of care and its practice of continuous quality improvement, the Board of Directors has identified person-centred care as one of its strategic priorities with objectives and a quality improvement plan to guide our success.

It’s the responsibility of you and/ or your family to make sure transportation arrangements have already been made. The hospital does not arrange or pay for transportation.
Please be sure to plan ahead and decide who will be available to take you to where you need to go when you leave.
Let your health care team know if your driver may change depending on the day and time you leave. If you will need to use and pay for a taxi, wheelchair or stretcher vehicle, staff can give you a list of available companies. We recommend you always seek a quote when making arrangements.
If I don’t have someone to volunteer to take me, will I have to pay?
Yes. If you have 3rd party insurance, transportation may be covered. Transportation is not covered by provincial medical plans (OHIP).
If I have a scheduled appointment not related to my hospital care, will I be able to go? What about transportation?
You will need to talk to your care team to find out if you are well enough to go to your appointment. If you are well enough, then you will need to make your own travel arrangements.
Most providers will accept cash, credit card or debit. Please plan ahead by having a credit or debit card number available when you book the transport. If I am being transferred to another hospital, will I have to arrange and pay for my transportation?
No. This transportation will be arranged by the hospital. Can I use an ambulance to return home? No. Ambulances are used to respond to emergencies and to transfer people who are critically ill.

Please work with your health care team to understand what options are best suited to your needs.
Your health care team is here to support you. If you have any questions or concerns, talk to a health care team member.
Thank you for making your departure as worry free as possible.
Use this space to write down any important information:
Departure Date:_________________________________Time:______________
Person taking me:_______________________Contact #:___________________
Other important information:_________________________________________
Your Ontario Health Card: your Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) will cover all your in hospital costs except for:
• preferred accommodation (semi-private or private accommodation)
• transportation costs that may be incurred, if applicable
If you do not have OHIP, you are responsible for all costs incurred during your stay. Supplementary insurance information: preferred accommodation charges are your responsibility. You may have extra insurance which will cover this added cost and you are encouraged to review your insurance coverage prior to admission. The hospital will submit the preferred accommodation request to your insurance company; however, the responsibility for payment remains yours. Every effort will be made to give you the type of accommodation you have requested; however, this may not always be possible due to patient needs and space limitations. You will be transferred when a room becomes available.
Your current medications: Physicians and nurses need to be aware of ALL medications, vitamins, herbal and food supplements you take. Bring your medication bottles and an up-to-date list of medications that includes the name of the medication, dose you take, and how often you take it. Your medications will be identified and returned to you or a family member to take home, or stored for you until discharge.
Personal items: you may wish to bring a brush, a comb, dental care products (toothbrush and toothpaste), shaving products, skin care products, pajamas and slippers as the hospital does not supply these items.
Electric devices: you may bring your own electric devices (items not supplied by the hospital include razors and hairdryers); battery-operated appliances are preferred. All electric devices must be checked and approved by our Maintenance Department; please ask your nurse to arrange for this.
Valuables: please do not leave valuables such as jewelry, money, credit/debit cards in your room unattended. Send valuables home or ask to have them locked up in our safe located in the Business Office.
The hospital is not responsible for any personal items that go missing.
These mistaken beliefs often lead patients to lose the ability to do things they want to do, and to have difficulty coping when they go home.
MYTH: Patients should stay in bed, because they will get better faster if they rest.
FACT: Research shows that bed rest is not a good way to recover from many different conditions and may actually make recovery time longer.
MYTH: It is not safe for patients to get out of bed.
FACT: Staying in bed and not moving can lead to problems with breathing, skin breakdown (bed sores), muscle loss, weakness, fatigue and confusion.
MYTH: Patients are not supposed to do their own personal care, such as washing or dressing.
FACT: Although there can be risks to moving around, staying in bed can actually be more risky to overall health and wellbeing. There are many things that can be done to avoid falls and stay safe while moving around in the hospital.
• Better breathing
• Better appetite
• Better mood
• Less skin breakdown (bed sores)
• Less dizziness
• Less pain
• Better ability to fight infections
• Better sleep
• Better able to manage at home
• Less weakness and fatigue
• Less falls
• Less confusion
Every little bit of activity can help to keep you healthy. If you are not sure of what you are safe to do, ask a member of your healthcare team.
Continue to perform tasks that you were able to do at home, such as dressing or walking to the washroom. Ask someone to bring your clothes, shoes, grooming supplies and gait aids.
• Sit up for all of your meals, either in a chair or at the edge of the bed
• Sit up in a chair when you have visitors
• Walk around the unit, either alone or with help
• Do bed exercises on your own throughout the day
Please ask your health care team if you have any questions.
Notes: _________________________________________________________________
A family member or friend should take you home after a hospital stay. Please ensure that you have after-care instructions, prescriptions, medication and followup appointment information. If you are unsure about anything, please ask staff before you leave.
You may need care after your discharge from the hospital. The hospital staff will help you plan for discharge and coordinate after care and resources if needed.
AMGH provides measures for the protection of patients, medical staff, staff, volunteers and visitors regarding environmental sensitivity exposure.

The procedure for dealing with individuals with environmental sensitivity will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
• Minimize use of perfume or perfumed products
• Do not bring strong smelling flowers into the hospital

Tell us about your past medical history: including your current condition and any illnesses that run in your family. Inform us of any other healthcare appointments or healthcare providers you are seeing or have seen.
Make sure you know what to do when you go home from the hospital: Ask as many questions as you need to make sure you understand what you need to do when you go home. Know about any follow-up appointments, what medications to take, any danger signs to be aware of, etc.
If something doesn’t seem to be right, speak up: You know the most about you. If a medication, treatment or test doesn’t seem right, don’t hesitate to speak up and ask questions.
Depending on your illness, you may be asked to stay in your room. Staff coming into your room may be wearing gowns, gloves and/or masks. Your visitors will also need to wear these protective items in this case.
Standardized Emergency Codes are required to identify a risk or emergency situation within our organization. They will be announced on the overhead paging system, and when there is no further risk you will hear the “all clear” announced to end the code. Codes are routinely tested to ensure we are prepared and they will be treated like we are experiencing the “real thing”. Staff are thoroughly trained to respond to each code and will provide direction to you as needed.
For all Codes:
• Remain where you are and please remain calm
• You will be directed if you are required to move or leave the building
• Stay to one side of the hallway or in the patient’s room as staff will be responding quickly
• Ask your healthcare provider if you are unclear about these instructions
Medications are reviewed by physicians, nurses and pharmacists. Your healthcare team needs to be aware of ALL medications (including over the counter medications), vitamins, herbal and food supplements you use.
Bring your medication bottles and an up to date list of medications that includes the name of the medication, dose you take, and how often you take it.
Tell us about any allergic reactions to medications, vitamins, herbal and food supplements, foods or the environment.
Do not keep any medications at your bedside unless ordered by the physician. Please send these items home or we will store them for you until discharge.
Your armband is used for patient identification and medication administration. Please do not remove this during your stay. Should it become damaged, inform your nurse and a new one will be provided.
Patient whiteboards are at each patient’s bedside and are used to communicate information to the patient and other health care providers. You can expect to see the date, your doctor’s name and your nurse’s name. Information about how much help you need to mobilize, reminders about upcoming tests and any other applicable information that makes caring for you safely can be found here as well. Families can also use the board to write down information they want the staff to know or any questions for the staff.
Call for help if you feel weak, dizzy or light headed when you get up. Follow directions given to you from your nurse about calling for help before getting up. Keep items within reach. Ask to have items such as bedside tables, phone and call bell where you can reach them easily. Ask someone to bring in your walker, cane or wheelchair from home and make sure your walker, cane or wheelchair is close by.
Move carefully. Go slowly when you change positions, especially when getting up from lying down. Use available rails or hand rests for support. Much of our furniture and equipment is on wheels and can move unexpectedly. Use caution when moving about.
Wear proper footwear. Good footwear should fit properly and have non-skid soles (not socks or knitted slippers). Make sure shoelaces are done up. Have proper footwear brought in.
Housecoats and pajamas should not drag on the floor.
When getting into chairs and wheelchairs, make sure the brakes are on before you sit down. Back into your chair and make sure you can feel the chair seat with the backs of your legs. Reach back with both hands to hold the armrests and sit down with control.
AMGH is committed to Patient Safety. As a result, we have adopted a policy of verifying who you are by the means of two separate identifiers. These identifiers are unique to you, so when two of them can be verified, we know we have the right person.

• Your Health Card Number
Why two different identifiers?
• To identify you as the person for whom the service or treatment is intended

Our Auxiliary currently has over 50 members, who selflessly give of their time to
help within the hospital and/or to assist with a variety of fundraising events.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our Auxiliary Members have not been able to volunteer regularly at AMGH and greatly miss connecting with each other and with AMGH. And, unfortunately, our Gift Shop has had to close permanently. Despite difficult circumstances, our members continue to volunteer by phoning patients to remind them of their upcoming appointments, and raise much needed funds for our Hospital, as well as bursaries for education.
Our Auxiliary is always excited to welcome new members! We meet at the MacKay Centre on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 1:30pm. If you are interested in joining our dedicated, passionate group of ‘volunteers with heart’, please contact our membership coordinator at 519-612-1236.
