Your Hospital Care Team
Medical Staff
The attending physician is primarily responsible for your care. All tests, medications, and consultations with other specialists are performed or administered under your attending physician’s supervision. If you are not under the care of an attending physician affiliated with Tomball Regional Medical Center, a physician will be assigned to you. Physicians, Anesthesiologists, Radiologists, and Pathologists are not employees of Tomball Regional Medical Center, but are contracted providers. You may receive a separate bill for any services provided by them.
Nursing Staff
Our nursing team is committed to providing comprehensive care to patients, each of whom requires different levels of personal attention and expert skills. You will be assigned a nurse who will coordinate a thorough nursing assessment, plan of care, and continuous monitoring of your health status throughout your hospitalization. Other caregivers, under the direction of the registered nurse, will be a assigned to care for you. A Charge Nurse is responsible for directing and coordinating nursing care on each unit. Please feel free to contact your nurse or the Charge Nurse if you have questions or concerns.
