Medications & infection control
If you are taking regular medication, please bring it to the Hospital in its original packaging and give it to your nurse so that your medication can be professionally monitored during your stay. Most medication will be locked and stored in a drawer in your room accessible only by nursing staff. This is a legal requirement in NSW hospitals.
Sydney Adventist Hospital offers all in-patients a comprehensive clinical pharmacy service. If you wish to discuss any of your medications whilst you are in hospital, please speak to your ward pharmacist.
Infection Prevention & Control
Practicing good hand hygiene both in hospital and other healthcare facilities can protect patients, relatives and staff from infection. Hand wash basins and alcohol hand gel dispensers can be found throughout all areas of the hospital. Please encourage your visitors to use the hand hygiene options provided.
