Before You Arrive
You will need to bring a small number of personal items to the hospital, such as pajamas, robe, slippers, and personal toilet articles including cases for glasses, contact lenses, hearing aids and dentures. If you have any personal items with you during your stay, please make sure your nurse is aware that you have them in your possession. These items are your responsibility to keep up with.
- Photo identification (ie. Driver’s license)
- Physician Orders
- Insurance, Medicare or Medicaid card
- Social Security Card
- Advanced Directives (if available)
- Work-related injury - workers's compensation claim number and any claim forms required by your employer
- List of all daily medications including the name strength and dosage information
Do Not Bring - Do not bring watches, jewelry, cash or other valuable to the hospital. Sovah Health will only be responsible for these items if they are given to Security. Ask your nurse about having your valuables locked up by Security. Please do not bring medications to the hospital unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
