When Families Call for a Notary at Rancho Springs
- A patient recovering from surgery who needs a family member to handle finances or property for a while
- An advance healthcare directive the patient wants in place before treatment continues
- Documents that can't wait for discharge, such as a sale, a deadline, or a court filing
The document should be completed before the visit but not signed — the patient signs in front of the notary. The notary verifies identity and witnesses the signature; for help with what the document should say, talk to an attorney first. See power of attorney and advance directive notarization for more.
How a Visit at Rancho Springs Works
- Call or text (951) 249-3965 with the patient's name, room or unit, the document, and any timing constraints (procedures, therapy, rounds).
- Confirm the patient's ID. A California driver's license, state ID, or passport. If it's at home or expired, check what ID is acceptable or call — there are options.
- At the bedside. The notary confirms the patient understands the document and is signing willingly, checks ID, witnesses the signature, and completes the notarial certificate and journal entry.
