Patient Bill of Rights
As a patient, you have rights and responsibilities under Florida law. Bayfront respects and implements these rights.
If you feel any of your rights have been violated, Bayfront encourages you to follow the three-step process listed below. You may also register a complaint with the Agency for Health Care Administration, Consumer Assistance Unit, by calling toll-free, (888) 419-3456.
Step 1: Tell your physician or nurses.
Step 2: If the complaint is not handled to your satisfaction, tell the supervisor or nurse manager.
Step 3: If you are still not satisfied, contact the hospital’s Executive Office at (727) 893-6707.
It is important to understand that all physicians, including radiologists, anesthesiologists, pathologists and emergency room physicians are independent and not employees of Bayfront Health System.
