Subject: Employee Parking
Our goal is to provide close and accessible parking to our patients and visitors. Valet parking
services will be offered to our patients and visitors at the north end of the Medical Center beginning
on Monday, October 4. As a result, updates have been made to the Employee Parking Policy.
Please review this policy and particularly the following updates:
- Employee parking at the Main Campus is located in the Pavilion Parking Garage and West Pavilion Lot west of Row C. Employees should not park in spaces designated for physicians or patients/visitors.
- Employees found to be parking in the North Garage, South Lot, Westwood Medical Arts Building 401, Valet spaces and/or Valet designated area (lower level of North Garage) parking areas will receive a vehicle immobilization (parking boot) without warning. Vehicle immobilization also carries a $50 removal fee.
The complete policy can be found under Employee Parking in Policy Stat. Thank you for providing
this access and convenience to our patients and visitors.
In Memory: Matthew D. Moyes
Matthew D. Moyes – February 3, 1967 – September 20, 2021
Riverside Emergency Department nurse practitioner Matthew D. Moyes passed away Monday, September 20, 2021, at Riverside Medical Center. Matt was a paramedic for many years before joining Riverside as a nurse in the emergency department. He then became a nurse practitioner and joined EPMG/Envision. Matt was also a U.S. Army Veteran, serving in Iraqi Freedom.
Matt was well known for sharing his knowledge, stepping in and supporting his team, and speaking up and sharing his ideas.
“My last conversation with Matt, I brought him a patient compliment I had received on a patient satisfaction survey. In response, he thanked me and then paid it forward by telling me how great Kaitlyn Beswick (one of our ED Nurses) was doing. He listed in great detail an example of a time she took great care of a patient and told me what a wonderful team we have here,” said Cris Langellier, Director of Emergency Services at Riverside.
MyChart Bedside Coming Soon to myRiverside App
Patients and their family members will be able to take advantage of a new feature coming to Riverside’s myRiverside App on Monday, October 4th. MyChart Bedside is Riverside’s free inpatient portal that allows patients to be more involved in their care while in the hospital. Patients will be able to see what medications they’re taking, their schedule for the day, and upcoming treatment plans. Any questions or concerns can be sent via secure messaging along with requests directly to the patient’s care team.
“Improving the patient experience is a top priority for Riverside and that often starts with easier access to health information,” said Phil Kambic, Riverside’s President and CEO.
Family members or other proxies can also take advantage of the new myRiverside feature so they can see important information regarding an inpatient stay. To access, patients or family members simply log into their myRiverside account and the “Your Hospital Stay” dashboard appears with features tailored to the specific hospital stay and care.
Bedside features include:
- View treatment team: Read role descriptions for each member of your care team
- Education materials: See education materials assigned by your clinician
- Medications issued: View medications issued while you’re admitted
- Hospital health issues: See an overview of your primary health issue(s)
- Happening soon: View medication administration times, surgeries, and appointments
- Test results: View labs from any tests administered during your stay
