The following safety policies are to be followed:
Fire
While at the hospital, in case you hear a fire alarm, stay where you are. The hospital sometimes conducts fire drills to keep staff members update in fire safety and to test its alarm system. In case of a fire, staff members will direct you to safety.
Telephone
In-house telephone is available throughout the hospital for free calls within the hospital.
Bed
The nursing staff will show you how to raise and lower the bed. Please do not try to get out of bed unless your doctor or nurse says it is okay. Your bed should always be in the "low" position when you get in or out of it. A nursing staff can help you with its adjustment. Your doctor or nurse may decide whether there is a specific medical reason for your bed rails to be raised. If so, please do not lower them yourself or allow a visitor to do so for you. Use the call signal to get a nursing staff if you need assistance.
Nurses
Your nursing team includes Nursing Supervisors, Head Nurses, Staff Nurses, Nursing Assistants and others. The nursing team will plan your nursing care. On each shift, a specific registered nurse will supervise your care. If you have a question or face a problem, you can speak to your assigned nurses/nursing supervisor. The nursing staff will show you how to use the call signal in your room. They will respond to your call immediately.
