To protect our patients, staff and visitors, Torrington Community Hospital has an extensive plan in place for emergency management. 

Regular meetings and drills are conducted to ensure the facility is ready to face any potential internal or external threat.

Codes for overhead pages are posted throughout the building. Becoming familiar with these codes will help you to respond appropriately in the event of an emergency. These instructions are also available as an attachment to your security badge.

Community Hospital has access to resources to provide interpretation for our patients who have communication barriers such as limited English proficiency or deafness. 

To respect confidentiality and to ensure that the patient receives accurate interpretation, it is Banner’s policy that a patient’s family or friends not be used to interpret.  

To access interpretation services for a patient, please inform the patient's nurse.

Resources for Interpretation:

• Video Remote Interpretation (VRI):  Interpreters available on a computer screen equipped with a camera and microphone with technology similar to Skype.  VRI provides interpreters for the following languages: American Sign Language, Spanish, Russian, Vietnamese and Somali.
