Your hospital room
Heart Hospital offers single occupancy rooms, each with a bathroom. However there may be times when a patient is asked to stay in a double occupancy room. If a single room is not available on the day of your admission, we will do our best to ensure that you receive one as soon as possible.
All patient rooms are equipped with the following :
- Television and remote control
- Telephone
- Bedside cabinet
- Table
- Visitor seating
Bringing an attendant with you
Based on your doctor’s recommendation, one personal attendant may be allowed to accompany and assist you during your hospital stay. The attendant will be allowed to stay overnight in your room. Please note that attendants are not permitted in the Critical Care Unit.
Meal service
Our catering team serves three main meals and additional snacks every day. If you are admitted later in the day, you will be offered a snack upon arrival.
During your hospital stay, your meals will be provided based on your medical needs, as directed by your doctor or advised by the dietetics team.
If you have any dietary restrictions, food allergies, or specific cultural or religious preferences, please inform your assigned nurse. Your needs will be documented, and the Catering Department will do its best to accommodate your requirements.
If you would like guidance or clarification regarding your nutrition or food options, your nurse can arrange a visit from a member of the Dietetics Team.
Telephone calls
Each patient room has a telephone for making and receiving local calls. To make a free call to a local landline from your room, dial “9” to get an outside line follow by the number you wish to call.
To make international calls, or calls to mobile phones, you will need to purchase a phone credit card or use your personal mobile phone. Please only use your personal mobile phone when in your hospital room.
