Visitor Information

When you arrive, we ask that your first stop be the front desk in the main lobby. There, you can sign in and receive a visitor’s badge. Our hospital volunteers are also available to update you with any new room information and point you in the right direction.

We ask that only two people visit with a patient at a time.

It can be difficult for family members and friends when someone is in the hospital recovering from an injury, illness or surgical procedure. We understand that family members of all ages want to surround and support their loved ones.

We ask that you keep the following age limits in mind when visiting the hospital to help us sustain a healthy and healing environment:

• Children under age 12 are not allowed in patient rooms
• Children under age 14 are discouraged from visiting patients in the intensive care unit
• An adult must accompany children under age 16 at all times

If you have a child who wants to see a family member, please talk to your nurse or doctor about other ways they can support your loved one.

To help us keep our patients, staff and providers feeling their best, we ask that you follow these guidelines:

• Smoking is not allowed anywhere on our grounds as AdventHealth Lake Wales is a tobacco-free campus
• Please do not bring food or candies unless the attending doctor gives you permission
• Stay home if you feel sick
• Wash your hands often when visiting to help prevent the spread of germs

A hospital gown and non-skid socks will be provided to every patient. We recommend any clothes brought with you to the hospital be sent home with your family or visitors. Near the end of your stay, we suggest having your loved ones bring clothes to you shortly before transitioning from the hospital.

Please note that per the consent form signed by the patient upon admission, AdventHealth is not responsible for any lost items.

We know that you need your dentures with you during your hospital stay. We will provide a denture cup for you to secure your dentures. This cup will stay with you at your bedside. Please be cautious of your denture cup, keeping it in a visible area and being careful to not place it on your food tray, in your linens or in a hidden area. This may cause your dentures to be accidentally removed from your room.

Please note that per the consent form signed by the patient upon admission, AdventHealth is not responsible for any lost items.

We understand that you need your hearing aids during your hospital stay. Hearing aids are best kept on your person, or in their original case. If your original case is not available, please let your health care team know so that we can provide a case for you to use. Please do not leave your hearing aids unattended and be mindful to not place them on your food tray, in your linens or in a hidden area. This may cause your hearing aids to be accidentally removed from your room.
