You will receive a selective menu according to your nutritional needs as ordered by your physician. Please inform your nurse or dietary clerk of any religious or special dietary needs.

Nutrition Services has implemented a new “Catering to You” program. A catering associate is assigned to each floor and is responsible for individual patient dietary needs.

Your physician, nurse and other hospital staff will be working together to develop a discharge plan especially for you. When you are discharged, we ask that you leave the hospital by 11 a.m., providing that you have the services, care and transportation ready at that time.

We recognize you may prefer a private room. There are times when our hospital does not have enough private rooms to meet all requests. Priority is given to patients with diseases that require them to be in private rooms to protect them and/or others. If you request a private room but one is not available, you will be placed on a waiting list. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Some rooms are centrally heated and air-conditioned. If you do not have a thermostat in your room and the temperature of your room is not comfortable, please notify a member of the nursing staff.
