Privacy and Confidentiality

As a patient at Lowell General Hospital, you have the right to have physical privacy during medical treatment and personal hygiene functions, unless you need assistance.

Lowell General also ensures confidential treatment of information about you. Information in your records will not be released to anyone outside the hospital without your approval, unless required by law. Please notify your nurse upon admission if you would like to include any family member or other individual in discussions about your diagnosis, treatment and recovery.
