Smoking
Smoking is prohibited in this hospital. The only area in which smoking is permitted is in the smoking area opposite the mortuary on the ground floor and on De Orangerie terrace under the smoke umbrella and under te smoke umbrella outside at the front of the hospital, 30 metres to the left of the main entrance (as you leave the building).

Use of mobile phone
Loud ring tones and alarms could be confused with alarms on medical equipment, and as mobile phones emit electromagnetic signals, they could also interfere with medical devices. If you need to make a call or send a text message, make sure that you go to an area where mobile phone use is allowed. Ask a member of staff at the hospital if you are unsure where you can use your mobile phone.

Visitors
In order to ensure the patients rest as much as possible, generally no more than two visitors per patient are allowed at one time.

MRSA Bacteria
With regard to our policy on preventing MRSA infections, it is important that you let us know if you have been in hospital in another country within the last twelve months.
