La Paz Regional Hospital operates as a 25‑bed not‑for‑profit Critical Access Hospital at 1200 W. Mohave Road in Parker, Arizona, with Chief Executive Officer Zafer Genc listed on the hospital’s AzFlex/CRH entry and a designation date of 10/23/13. CRH notes the hospital “has been serving La Paz County for over forty years” and calls it “the Western Gateway to Arizona, California and Nevada.”

Healthylapaz lists the hospital’s Parker campus clinics and satellite sites with direct contact numbers: main hospital and River Health Clinic at 1200 W.

Clinical services reported on the CRH listing include a broad range of inpatient and outpatient care, acute care and outpatient surgery. “Surgery is open 24 hours a day, every day,” the CRH entry states, and the cath lab “operates five days a week.” CRH also lists colonoscopies, outpatient antibiotic therapy offered routinely, and a Physical Therapy/Rehab center that provides cardiac rehab.

Telemedicine and specialty rotations expand local access to specialists. CRH records that La Paz Regional “participates in the Mayo Clinic TeleStroke and TeleNeurology programs, offering routine and emergency access to top Mayo Clinic neurologists via telecommunications telemedicine.” Healthylapaz says the hospital manages a specialty clinic and encourages rotating orthopedics, surgical services, ENT and other specialists to visit La Paz County.

Mohave Road; Healthylapaz lists the urgent care phone as (928) 669‑7443 and CRH provides urgent care hours of 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. For scheduling specialty visits or confirming cath lab or surgery availability, patients should call the main number at (928) 669‑9201.

Patient services and visitor amenities are detailed on the hospital’s visitor information page. The Concierge Desk will “provide fax and copier service to patients including pick‑up and delivery to patient rooms during normal Concierge Desk operating hours,” and will “provide escort service within the hospital complex and arrange for wheelchair assistance for visitors.” The Gift shop “is located off the Main Lobby. It carries sundry items, gifts, and snacks.” The site also notes “There is a quiet outdoor garden, the Serenity Garden, to the left of the Main Entrance, with desert plants and bench seating.”

Interpreter and patient‑support logistics: the hospital “has onsite interpreter services in Spanish and Tagalog. Interpretation services for other languages are available through a telephone service.” Case Management is available Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.; Lapazhospital advises callers to contact the operator and ask for Case Management for weekday assistance and to speak with a nurse or Nursing Supervisor after hours. Financial representatives are listed as available seven days a week.

The hospital notes “There is limited transportation service in La Paz County. If you find you need transportation from the hospital, we will try to find a service for you.”
