 Family members and close friends are encouraged to be a part of the care process, whenever appropriate.
Involvement in care might be something as simple as encouraging the patients to eat or feeding the patient who is not able to eat without help. Involvement might be fluffing a pillow or smoothening the sheets to make the patient more comfortable. Most of all involvement means being with the patient, while nurses are happy to provide such care, patients surrounded by the love of the family members or a close friend reportedly have a significant quicker recovery!
While family and loved ones are encouraged to be involved in the care process, your Consulting doctor at the hospital and the nursing staff must give permissions for them to do so. Permission from the management is also required to be with the patient either before or after normal visiting hours.
In such Suites, Single Deluxe & Twin Deluxe rooms only one attendant may stay with the patient. However in the multi bedroom no attendant is allowed to stay with the patient in the room. They may use the common waiting area.
