etc. capitalized unless stated as part of the hospital/clinic name,i.e.
XXXX Cardiology Service, XXXX Cardiology Department, etc.; therefore it should not be capitalized. In examples in BOS, thought not stated specifically, it would not be capitalized.

? regarding capitalization of name of departments
Subject: ? regarding capitalization of name of departments
Would you capitalize emergency room or emergency department if the department name is given with the name of the hospital in same sentence - such as
____ _____ ______ (name of hospital) Emergency Room
I was always taught that if the name of the hospital was used it was to be capitalized, but if not, then lower case?
Thanks
capitalization of departments
Subject: capitalization of departments
I used to think they should always be capitalized, but this is what the company I work for says to do: Substitute a name (say, Dr. Smith) for the department. If it sounds right, capitalize. If a name does not sound right, don't. For example, we consulted Orthopedic Surgery (we consulted Dr. Smith). We need an orthopedic surgery opinion (we need a Dr. Smith opinion - no, does not sound good). However, you also have to go by the preference of the facility. One of my accounts wants these capitalized all the time, even Operating Room (I think that looks silly - as if that operating room is more important than any other).
