Admissions

It’s normal to feel anxious about staying in the hospital. Please know you’re not alone. You will have an entire healthcare team focused on your safety and well-being.

We encourage you to read our visitor/patient Information section, to help you understand more about your hospital stay. The information will be useful for you and your family.

What Do I Bring?

You will only need essential items, such as:

  • Sleepwear.
  • Slippers.
  • Toiletries.
  • Any equipment used in your care (i.e. crutches, prosthetics, C-pap machine, hearing aids, eyeglasses, etc.).

Should you need any additional personal care items, these can be purchased in our hospital gift shops.

What Paperwork Should I Bring?

Please provide our hospital caregivers:

  • A list of all medications, supplements or herbals, including dosages.
  • Living will (if you have one).
  • Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare (if you have one).
  • Any physician orders.
  • Any preadmission paperwork.

What Shouldn’t I Bring?

  • Large sums of money: Please do not keep more than 500 KES in your room.
  • Jewelry: If you are admitted without advance preparation, ask family members or friends to take home your jewelry.
  • Other valuables: For safety reasons, electronics, laptops, iPods and iPads should not be kept in your possession while in the hospital. Cleveland Clinic is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
