As recent health studies have found, tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death and disease in the U.S. As a health care organization, Medina Regional Hospital is taking a lead role in addressing this major health issue.

Smoking, the use of chewing tobacco, or any other tobacco-related products is not permitted at any Medina Regional Hospital facility or within the Medina Healthcare System by patients or visitors.

Tobacco use can be a serious physical and emotional addiction and Medina Regional Hospital will offer support to its patients and visitors who will no longer be able to use tobacco on hospital property.
