Ordering Food from Outside Vendors
If you are on a regular diet, with no dietary restrictions, family or friends may bring you food or meals from outside vendors. Speak to your nurse to ensure you have no pending tests or anything else that would restrict food or beverage intake. We DO NOT allow food delivery onto the hospital floors. If you place an order for delivery, a family member or friend must meet the delivery service at the main entrance and then bring the item to you. Hospital personnel are prohibited from leaving their work areas to assist in this matter.
Telephone Services
Telephones are available in all patient rooms, except for those in our Behavioral Health Unit. You can make an outgoing call at any time around the clock but incoming calls can only be received between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. These hours are set to help make sure that our nights and mornings are quiet so everyone can sleep peacefully.
Television
Television sets are provided in each patient room. Patients in semi-private rooms share a television.
Free Wireless Internet Available
Free wireless internet access is available so that patients, families, physicians and staff can connect to the internet anytime while you are with us. Computers are not provided by the hospital, but patients or guests who bring their own laptop computer or handheld device can connect to the internet free of charge. This is just another way for us to make your stay with us that much easier.
Patient Safety
The safety of you, your family and friends as well as our own employees is very important to us. We want you to feel safe and secure while you are with us, that is why all of our staff have been trained in the latest safety and fire prevention programs.
Fresh Flowers and Your Mail
Our volunteers are an amazing and dedicated team here at St. Elizabeth. One of the many services that they provide include the delivery of any floral arrangements and mail that may be sent to you during your stay with us. When you are discharged, your mail will be forwarded to your home address and floral arrangements will no longer be accepted. If you need assistance, any of our volunteers will be happy to help you read any cards or letters you may receive. In addition, our volunteers will take any of your outgoing mail and make certain it is mailed. In case you feel like taking a walk, USPS mailboxes are available in the main lobbies.
