Patient and Visitor Guide

Caring for You and Your Loved Ones

We’re here to provide more than just exceptional medical care—we’re here to make you and your family feel supported every step of the way. We know that being in the hospital can feel overwhelming, so we’ve worked hard to create a welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable and cared for.

This guide is designed to help you navigate your stay with ease.

Your health, safety, and peace of mind are our priorities. Whatever you need, we’re here to support you and your family during this time.

Pre-Admission

Planning ahead ensures a smooth and stress-free hospital experience. If your visit is not an emergency, take the time to prepare by following these steps:

1.

Bring valid IDs with personal details (e.g., current address, next of kin, employer).

2.

Keep a list of your medical history, including medications and records, ready.

3.

Bring your healthcare cards or insurance coverage forms, as well as any special form(s) or pre-authorization documents such as Letter of Guarantee (LOG) or Letter of Authority (LOA).

4.

If you are married, bring information about your spouse's insurance coverage to ensure that you avail yourself of full insurance benefits as his/her dependent.

Visiting Policies

Visitors play a vital role in healing, and we encourage family and friends to bring positivity and support. To ensure patient comfort and visitor safety, we kindly ask everyone to follow these guidelines:

  • One watcher is advised to take care of the patient occupying our rooms, this is to prevent the spread of infections and to minimize unnecessary disturbance to other patients.
  • For children's safety and well-being, it is not recommended that children, ten (10) years old and below, visit relatives and friends confined in the hospital
  • Hospital staff reserves the right to limit visitation, as needed, to meet the healthcare needs of the patients or to protect the patient's privacy needs
  • If a patient expressly wishes or if the physician orders that visitors are excluded for medical/therapeutic reason, a "NO VISITORS" sign is posted on the patient's door
  • "No Smoking" policy is strictly practiced within the hospital buildings and premises to protect the health of our patients, visitors, and staff
