Hurricane Readiness and Office Policies
from Gulf Coast Pain Management

We appreciate your business and want to make sure your safety comes first in the event
of a threat of a hurricane.

Dear Patient,

It is vital that you and your family are prepared in advance for a possible hurricane.

This includes being prepared medically. Please remember to check your prescriptions and notify us if you will be needing any prescriptions during a hurricane threat.

Our office policy for office closure during a hurricane warning follows the Pinellas County School system.

With Hurricane Season upon us, it is highly recommended that you create a "Disaster Proof" Health record.

An iHealthRecord is easy to create. It is completely confidential. Only you decide who views your record-including which physicians-and only you can change it.

Create an iHealthRecord for you and your family and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your health information is safe and accessible from anywhere and at any time. The information also includes location of and information regarding living wills.

In the event of a disaster or evacuation, your record can be accessed. A printable wallet card ensures you're prepared for an emergency.

In the event of a hurricane, our office follows the public school announcements for office closures.
