Amenities for Patients & Visitors


TV rentals are provided by HealthHub (Hospitality Network). For information on renting a TV during your stay, click here or turn on the TV once in your patient room and follow the directions. A family member can also do this for you remotely.

If you require information on rental fees, please call 1-866-223-3686.

A phone is located beside each patient bed (exceptions apply on some patient care units).

Outside callers can dial directly into patient rooms. Give your family and friends the hospital telephone number (905-895-4521) and your extension, as shown on the phone handset.

In consideration for other patients, incoming calls are blocked between the hours of 10 p.m. and 7:30 a.m. Urgent after-hours calls are directed to the nursing station on the patient care unit.

Before you are discharged, please inform your relatives and friends when you are being discharged so the next patient does not receive your calls.

Should you have any questions or concerns about your telephone, dial “0” and a switchboard operator will assist you.

Pay phones are also located on every level and in the East and West Building lobbies.

Every patient has the ability to call for assistance whenever necessary. Your nurse will explain how the Nurse Call System works when you are admitted to your room. Patients also have the ability to call for assistance from all washrooms located on patient care units.
