In accordance with an Illinois Department of Public Health recommendation, FHN Memorial Hospital in Freeport has put into action the visitor restrictions for the health and safety of our patients and staff.
We at FHN are proud to work with The Joint Commission to encourage our patients and their advocates to Speak Up and get involved in their care.
FHN’s new telemedicine app FHNow gives you access to a provider via smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer, and your virtual visit is just $59.
FHN and the Northern Illinois Food Pantry are helping get a healthy “dose” of good food to those who need it. This free program will distribute healthy produce, milk, eggs, and frozen and canned meats to qualified participants on a regular basis.
This is a 1-day class designed to prepare students in grades 6-8 to be safe when they're home alone, watching younger siblings, or babysitting. The Instructor-led class is filled with fun games and role-playing exercises.
