Finding the right person at Orlando Health can sometimes feel like navigating a maze. This guide will help you connect with your team member efficiently and effectively, whether you're a patient, a visitor, a fellow employee, or a member of the community.
How Can I Find a Specific Orlando Health Employee?
This is often the most common question. Unfortunately, Orlando Health, like many large healthcare organizations, doesn't publicly list employee contact information for privacy reasons. However, there are several reliable ways to connect:
-
Through the Orlando Health Website: The website is your first port of call. Many departments and specialty areas have contact pages, allowing you to reach the general office or a specific department. Look for a "Contact Us" section or search for the specific department related to your team member.
-
Through the Orlando Health Physician Directory: If you're looking for a doctor or other healthcare provider, the online physician directory is a helpful resource. It often lists contact information for individual physicians and their office staff.
-
Using the Internal Orlando Health Systems (if applicable): If you're an employee, patient, or visitor and you have access to the organization's internal systems, you'll likely find a staff directory or communication platform there.
-
Contacting the Main Switchboard: As a last resort, calling the main Orlando Health switchboard and explaining who you need to reach is usually possible. They may be able to direct your call to the correct department or individual.
How Do I Contact My Orlando Health Care Team?
Connecting with your specific care team depends on your situation:
-
Inpatient: If you are a patient at an Orlando Health facility, you should have access to your care team's contact information through your medical chart or your assigned nurse. If you need to reach them urgently, always contact the nurses' station on your floor.
-
Outpatient: For outpatient appointments, contact information for your doctor's office or the specific department you're visiting will be provided on your appointment confirmation or through the online patient portal.
-
Employee-to-Employee Communication: If you're an Orlando Health employee trying to connect with a colleague, utilize the organization's internal communication tools, such as email or an instant messaging system.
