Patient guidelines

Smoking

We are a smoke-free environment. We ask that you do not smoke anywhere on the hospital campus, including entrances and walkways.

Visitors

Information about visitors can be found on our patient and guest overview page.

Swing bed program

After a hospital stay, you may feel more than ready to return home – but in some situations, additional care is needed. In cases like these, the swing bed program at Olivia Hospital & Clinic provides a smooth transition between receiving care in the hospital and returning home, combining round-the-clock hospital-level care with familiar comforts.

In the swing bed program, our patients remain in a hospital setting and receive rehabilitative and nursing care that focuses on continuous recovery from injury, illness or surgery. Through treatment plans tailored to your unique situation, we’ll help you prepare to leave the hospital feeling confident and empowered.

Olivia Hospital & Clinic is committed to the safety of our patients – from reducing the risk of infection to ensuring your clinician has all the information needed to prescribe the right medicine for you. We are dedicated to delivering the highest level of patient care, putting quality, health and safety at the forefront of everything we do.

We are committed to a safe, respectful and healing environment.

We do not allow threats, aggression, abuse, harassment or discrimination toward anyone for any reason. We will take action to ensure the safety of all patients, staff and guests.
