Your time is valuable, so instead of reading a magazine to pass the time waiting to see your physician, now you can use that time in the privacy of the exam room to explore and learn about the latest innovations in healthcare that may be important to you.  Desert Bloom has installed a new patient interactive system in each exam room by Patient Education Systems.  You can see a preview of this at their website http://patienteducationsystems.com/product/.  This is not a TV in the lobby that shows you the same information every 15 minutes, but a computer system that has access to a library of videos that the staff can pull up just for you!

Desert Bloom is now a WI FI hotspot!  Bring your computer to your appointment and access the web while you are waiting!

As you may have noticed, St. Joseph’s Hospital has a parking issue; the drop off for Labor & Delivery is on the east side of the hospital (no valet) and the parking structure is on the southwest end of the campus. We have a solution! For the added convenience of Desert Bloom patients who are in labor we have three designated spaces in the northeast corner of our front parking lot, directly across for Labor and Delivery. Desert Bloom patients will be provided a parking pass to display on their rear view mirror so we may confirm their vehicle should be there. Please do not park in these spaces for other hospital or office visits as space is limited and we are specifically providing this for the convenience of our patients when in labor.
