Visiting Loved Ones

Being in the hospital can be a difficult time. That’s why we encourage patients to spend as much time with family and friends as they want. You’re welcome to visit at any time your loved one wishes to have guests. Day beds in many patient rooms provide a comfortable place for you to stay at the bedside. “At Your Request” room service allows you to have meals delivered to the room so you don’t have to leave your loved one’s side. We know that family and friends play an important role in helping patients recover. That’s why we do whatever we can to accommodate your needs during your time in the hospital.

Information Desk

If you have questions or need help finding your way, stop by the information desk in the main entrance lobby. If you’re a patient, we’ll give you clear directions to your destination. If you’re a visitor, we’ll tell you your loved one’s room number and give you directions. If you get lost along the way, ask any employee for help.

Dining

Cafeteria
Visit the cafeteria just off the main entrance for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Enjoy salads, soups, a short order grill and deli and freshly baked desserts. Takeout items are available throughout the day. The cafeteria is open 6:30 a.m. – 6:15 p.m. daily

At Your Request Dining Service
From 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., patients and visitors can order from a restaurant-style menu from the comfort of their room. Patients’ dietary restrictions will be taken into account when the meal is ordered and prepared. To place an order, call 610-402-3663 (FOOD). Your meal will arrive within 60 minutes.
