Patients 70 Years and Older

Please be advised that all patients, who are 70 years and over, or who are in a diminished mental state must be admitted to a private room and accompanied by a relative at all times.
Should a relative not able to stay with the patient, a nurse will be placed with them at an additional cost.
If a patient’s mental capacity diminishes while warded in a shared room, they will be admitted to a private room at an additional cost.
This is a best effort to ensure the safety of all patients at Medical Associates Hospital.
