Information for Patients

From freshly brewed coffee to comfort through prayer, you’ll have everything you need to focus on making a healthy recovery.

All hospital rooms are equipped with the following:

• Call buttons and bed controls
• Housekeeping to keep your room clean each day
• Internet access
• Telephones
• TVs with remotes

We also have an onsite chapel and an outdoor prayer garden, with chaplains available around the clock. Sometimes, a quiet prayer is just what you need. You’ll always have access to a peaceful space — whether for praying, thinking or simply enjoying the stillness.

We want you focused on your health rather than where to park. Use our lot in front of the main entrance and surrounding lots, free of charge, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

And if you need help, you can find our security office in the emergency department.

We have volunteers in the main lobby during regular business hours to help patients and families, ensuring you’ll always have someone to help you navigate our Littleton hospital campus.

We aim to provide you with the best nutrition for quick recovery. You’ll be served your meals in your room based on your doctor’s orders.

Your guests are welcome to visit our Windows on the Rockies Café for a hot meal or a quick snack. Located on the first floor, this café is open daily from 6:30 am to 7:30 pm.

If you plan a stay at our Littleton hospital, we want it to feel as homey as possible. That might mean bringing some personal items. We suggest you only bring the essentials and leave valuables at home, including jewelry and most cash.

Consider packing:

• Dentures with the case and cleaning solution
• Glasses, contact lenses, solutions and cases
• Non-slip slippers and a robe
• Personal hygiene items you prefer, such as shampoo or toothpaste
• Phone numbers of family and friends
• Small items that bring you comfort, such as photos or a book

It’s also helpful to bring items like these with you:

• A credit card or check for any insurance co-payment
• A list of your medications, with the dose and how often you take them
• Photo identification
• Prior test results, X-rays or medical records if your doctor requests them
• Workers’ compensation information, if applicable
• Your advance directives, such as a living will or durable medical power of attorney
• Your health insurance card(s)

While you’re with us, you’ll meet with different people from your care team. A doctor or another designated care team member will visit you at least once daily. Your nurses will also discuss your care plan with you and your loved ones (if preferred) multiple times throughout the day. As the patient, you’re the focus. So, we encourage you to participate in the care process.

You’ll likely see specialists from different departments, such as your doctor, primary nurse, discharge planner, pharmacist or physical therapist.

Hospitalists, doctors who specialize in caring for hospitalized patients, are consistently available. They are familiar with the hospital environment and how to provide you with the best care. The hospitalist will work with your primary doctor and other care team members.

We know that a hospital stay may be unexpected and can bring up feelings of anxiety. So, while you’re at our AdventHealth Littleton hospital, you can expect a team devoted to your comfort and whole-person health — body, mind and spirit. That means access to a spiritual care team, with chaplains available to you and your loved ones at any time to provide extra support. You can also use our chapel and prayer garden to find peace and serenity.
