Patient Conditions

We will release a one-word condition for any public record patient provided the request includes the patient's full name and that the individual has agreed to the release of such information. A patient's condition may be described as any of the following:

Undetermined – Patient is awaiting physician and/or assessment.

Good – Vital signs are stable and within normal limits. Patient is conscious and comfortable. Indicators are excellent.

Fair – Vital signs are stable and within normal limits. Patient is conscious, but may be uncomfortable. Indicators are favorable.

Serious – Vital signs may be unstable and not within normal limits. Patient is acutely ill. Indicators are questionable.

Critical – Vital signs are unstable and not within normal limits. Patient may be unconscious. Indicators are unfavorable.

Additional information regarding a patient's condition may only be released with that individual's written consent or that of a parent or guardian. We will withhold a patient's condition if requested to do so by the individual, his or her care team, or police.
