How To Go About Your Visit

The first thing to do is to make sure that you have the correct name of the patient you want to visit. The hospital may not be able to find your loved one only with a nickname.

Then you need to make sure you know the ward where your loved ones are receiving care. You may call them directly, or call the hospital with the name.

You may need to obtain directions to the hospital; the address is Cnr Atterbury Oberon Avenue, Faerie Glen, 0043, South Africa.

At the correct time, arrive at the hospital, and go straight to the front desk. Give them your name, the name of the person you want to visit, and the ward.

The nursing staff will give you directions, and instructions.

Guidelines For Visitors

Visitors may be required to sanitize their hands, and wear nose masks before entering into wards.

Visitors are restricted to two per patient at a time.

Children (below 12 years old) are welcome, but with adult supervision.

In the intensive care unit (ICU), two family members per patient are allowed per visit, however, no children under 12 are allowed.

In the high care unit, two visitors per patient are allowed, no children under 12 years of age.

Please do not go straight into the wards in search of your loved ones. Always stop first at the nurses’ station to obtain directions and instructions.

What To Bring To The Hospital

This hospital mostly deals with trauma and diseases dealing with the bones/skeletal system. Knowing what to bring to patients at this hospital can go a long way to help make the hospital stay less stressful.

Comfortable clothes: these are clothes that will be easy to wear and take off; probably with their buttons in the front. The shirts should also be loose fitting, and be made of soft materials such as cotton or silk. That means they will not cause any discomfort, even after several hours of wear.

The same rule applies to the pants or trousers; they should be loose fitting and comfortable. They should not have any ropes, zippers, or belts. They can be held by rubber bands.

Footwear should also be comfortable; they should not be too tight, they must be easy to wear and take off, and should not cause any discomfort after long hours of wear. The preferred material is rubber, and the footwear should not have any buckles or laces.

Please remember to change the clothes regularly as the hospital may not cater to your loved ones’ laundry needs.

Personal care items: soaps, body creams, combs, shaving kit, sanitary pads, and other such items are great to show that you remember their needs, and also to help make the hospital stay more comfortable.
