Help us! Turn in unused pagers



By: G. Andrew Clarke, MD, Chief Medical Information Officer

As part of our effort to maintain accurate records and ensure reliable communication, we will be conducting a test of all unassigned pagers currently active in our environment. We’ve identified about 1,000 pagers, many of which are not associated with any individual.

Here’s how you can help:

  • During regular business hours, Oct. 13 through 24, we will send out test pages to all unowned pagers.
  • If you receive a test page, please promptly call the Switchboard at 503-561-5200 to confirm receipt and identify the pager.
  • Please turn in unused and unneeded pagers to the Medical Staff Office on the Salem Hospital campus, Building B, 3rd floor.
