Your Valuables

Patient Valuables 

We care about you and want your stay at Highland to be exceptional.  We also care about your personal belongs and valuables.  When possible please leave all valuables at home or send them home with a family member or friend upon admission.  Please inform a nurse if you have brought any of the following items so they may be stored in the hospital safe:  money, credit cards, jewelry, documents or other valuable items.  Although Highland Hospital does not accept responsibility for patient belongings, we do our best to inform patients of the importance of brining only necessities with you.

Helpful tips:

• Be sure that you let staff know if you have dentures, glasses and/or hearing aids so they can assist you during your stay.  If these items are not needed during your stay, please do not bring them to the hospital.  These items need to be properly secured during your stay.
• Dentures should be stored in a denture cup, supplied by the hospital, labeled with the patient’s name.
• Glasses and hearing aids should be stored in the cases that were supplied when purchased and labeled with the patient’s name.
• Please avoid placing any of these items on a meal tray, on the bed, unprotected on the bedside table or in any concealed place where they may be lost or accidentally thrown out.
• Check your room carefully before changing rooms or going home.
