Mercy General Hospital, part of the Dignity Health system, serves East Sacramento and surrounding communities from its location on J Street. When a family member is admitted — whether for planned treatment or an emergency — legal documents often cannot wait. A durable power of attorney may need to be signed before a procedure, or a healthcare directive should be in place while the patient can still give clear direction.
Our mobile notary team travels directly to Mercy General Hospital at 4001 J St, Sacramento. We work in patient rooms, family waiting areas, or wherever is most comfortable and private. Our notaries are experienced in sensitive hospital environments and treat every visit with care and discretion.
We work respectfully around the patient's care schedule, coordinate with nursing staff when needed, and bring all necessary notarial supplies so the patient and family only need their documents and a valid photo ID.
