Stafford Hospital is committed to providing our patients with the best possible healthcare and to encourage each patient to actively participate in the recovery process. This section provides you with the information you need to plan your hospital stay.
What to bring Please bring the essentials: basic toiletries, pajamas or nightgowns, robe and non-skid slippers. Please leave any valuables at home. Store dentures and eyeglasses in protective containers when not in use. The hospital cannot be responsible for the loss or damage of such items.
We also suggest you bring a complete list of all of your medications (including dosages) and any allergies.
Your accommodations All inpatient rooms at Stafford Hospital are private rooms. Each room has been designed for guests to stay overnight, when appropriate.
Each room contains a television, telephone and bathroom. Patients may be transferred from room to room or unit to unit at the discretion of the nursing staff for the welfare of the patients, family and/or nursing unit in general. The patient and/or family will be notified of room changes.
"At Your Request" room service Good, nutritious meals delivered at the right time are an important part of a patient's stay. Patients order their meals through our "At Your Request Room Service" program. This program offers greater variety and the option to order any time during operating hours. Room service associates can view patients' dietary restrictions to help them make choices that are appropriate for their diet. Patients can order their meals in advance and specify a delivery time. Friends and family members can order on behalf of the patient from any location.
Smoking policy Stafford Hospital's entire campus is tobacco-free inside and out. All patients, visitors, employees and physicians must leave the hospital campus in order to smoke.
Insurance plans accepted We accept most insurance plans, including Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and Kaiser, as well as a wide variety of private carriers.
