Your Room
The majority of inpatient rooms at Liberty Hospital, with the exception of those in our Skilled Nursing and Express Admission Units, are private rooms. Each contains a television, telephone and bathroom. Patients may be transferred room to room, bed to bed or unit to unit at the discretion of the nursing staff for the welfare of the patients, family and/or nursing unit in general. The patient and/or family will be notified of room changes.
Television
Color televisions are located in each room at Liberty Hospital. These remote control televisions will allow you to select channels without leaving your bed. Pillow speakers are provided so you can hear the television clearly.
Telephone Service
A telephone is located in each room. To make a local call outside the hospital, dial 9, then the number you desire. There is no charge for local calls. Long-distance calls must be made collect, or charged to your credit card number or home phone number. Call the operator, "0," for assistance.
Mail
Letters and packages for patients are delivered each morning by volunteers. Letters and parcels that arrive after you have been discharged are forwarded to your home. Cards, stationery and stamps may be purchased in the gift shop. Outgoing mail may be left at the nurses’ station or given to a volunteer.
Flowers
Flowers are delivered to your room by volunteers. Please keep in mind that large plants and flowers are difficult to deliver and remove upon discharge.
Newspapers
Newspapers may be purchased at the entrance to the hospital. |
