Valuables or Lost Items

Patients are asked not to bring items of value to the hospital. If you do bring anything of value, it should be deposited in the safe in the Cashier's Office located on the ground floor in the Hospital Lobby. You will be given a written receipt for all items, which must be presented when you withdraw them. The hospital does not accept responsibility for items of value unless they are deposited in the safe.

Cellular Phones

Cellular telephones must be turned completely off because the devices transmit even in standby mode. Thank you for your cooperation.
