Your attending physician has primary responsibility for your care and will supervise all tests, medications and consultations. If you were not under the care of a physician affiliated with Corona Regional Medical Center when you were admitted to the hospital, an attending physician will be assigned to you.

Nursing Staff

The nursing staff at Corona Regional Medical Center is committed to providing comprehensive care to all patients, all of whom requires different levels of personal attention and skill. You will be assigned a registered 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 assigned to care for you. A nurse manager is responsible for directing and coordinating nursing care on each unit. Please feel free to contact your nurse or the nurse manager if you have questions or concerns.
