Flowers may be delivered directly to the front desk for all patients except those receiving care in the intensive care unit. A hospital volunteer will deliver flowers, packages and gifts to patients.
Gifts and flowers are welcome at Northeast Georgia Medical Center but please be aware:
ICU, oncology, and immunocompromised patients may receive gifts but not flowers or plants. This is due to the fact that flowers and plants can harbor mold and water-borne organisms which could cause additional infection and we want your loved one to have the cleanest and safest environment for healing.
