Progressive Technology Prepares Patients for Hospital Stay04:33

Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare continues to be an innovator in the health care industry by being the first hospital in the Mid-South to launch a Virtual Welcome Center (VWC). The VWC is an innovative, web-based technology that gives patients and their families a visual tour of Methodist University Hospital. In addition, it provides people with the information they need to know before arriving to make their visit as easy and stress-free as possible. “Our goal in bringing the Virtual Welcome Center to life on our website is to make every patient and their family feel as comfortable and at home in our hospitals as we possibly can,” said Jill Fazakerly, director of marketing for Methodist Healthcare. “Through the Virtual Welcome Center, we can provide unparalleled patient and physician education regarding hospital resources, the advanced medical treatments we provide and directional information for Methodist University Hospital including where to park, where to check in and a comprehensive layout of our facility.”
