Prescription medications in their prescription bottles.
A list of all over-the-counter drugs, including herbs and vitamins.
Dentures, denture cups, eyeglasses, hearing aids, and carrying cases. During your hospitalization, please keep these items in their proper containers. The hospital cannot assume responsibility for items left on food trays.
What Not to Bring Jewelry, credit cards, large sums of money or other valuables.
The hospital provides complimentary hair dryers. While patients are welcome to bring other personal electrical devices (laptop computer, fan, radio, portable DVD/CD player, and cell phone charger), for safety reasons, we ask that a nurse be notified before use.
