Hospital house rules Our hospital wants to provide a pleasant and safe environment for its patients, visitors and staff. That’s why we have drawn up some house rules. 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 the 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 In the hospital you can use your mobile phone, including the internet, but not everywhere in the building. Loud ringtones and alarms could be confused with alarms on medical equipment, and as mobile phones emit electromagnetic signals, they could also interfere with medical devices. Areas where mobile phones and tablets cannot be used are clearly marked. 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. We expect everyone to behave with respect. Animals are not permitted inside the building. Cats, dogs and other animals can carry infectious diseases that can be a risk to the patients.
