Smoking
NHRMC
recognizes that smoking is both a health hazard and a safety
hazard. Therefore, to provide for the safety, comfort and health
of the patients, employees, medical staff, volunteers and other guests,
smoking is not permitted in the Medical Center. However, on the
bottom level of the parking deck, outside the stairwell closest to the
Oaks, is a designated smoking area.
