Over 35 million people have to stay in hospital every year for one reason or another. Whether it's a temporary injury or a long-term illness, your loved one who is hospitalized needs your love and support. As helpless as you may feel when someone you love needs medical attention, there are things you can do to show your best wishes and support, such as sending one of our Infinity Flower Boxes. However, there are a few things you need to consider first when sending flowers to a hospital.
Find out beforehand
Before you can send a flower arrangement to a patient in hospital, you should obtain some important information. You need to know the patient's full name, their room number and of course the name and address of the hospital itself. You can find the information about the hospital either online or by calling the reception and you can get the patient's details from a friend or relative. Make sure the patient is actually still in hospital before you send the Infinity Roses - you don't want it to arrive after they've already been discharged!
Some hospitals do not allow flower deliveries, so you need to check the hospital's policy before arranging a delivery. In departments such as the intensive care unit or the emergency room, flower deliveries are usually not allowed. If the hospitals do not allow flower deliveries, you can arrange for the Infinity roses to be delivered when the patient returns home or when they are transferred to a ward or hospital where flower deliveries are allowed.
Allergy-free
Even if the patient you are sending flowers to does not have a flower allergy, it is considerate to choose an allergy-free arrangement as the flowers will be in close proximity to hospital staff, visitors and other patients. A good allergy-free alternative is infinity roses. They are allergy-friendly and require no care or water.
Choose cheerful colors
If someone you love is undergoing treatment or surgery, you may be wondering what colors are appropriate for the floral arrangements. When choosing flowers, opt for bright colors to brighten and cheer up the hospital room. Consider the personality and preferences of the loved one. Almost everyone will be delighted with an Infinity Flowerbox in bright colors.
Pay attention to the size
Flowers can improve the patient's mood and brighten up their time in hospital. Be aware of the fact that hospital rooms have limited space. It can be tempting to buy so many infinity roses that they fill the entire hospital room. As beautiful as a large infinity flower box may be as a token of love, it may be better to go for a small or medium sized flower box and only give him a larger box when the patient is back home.
Include a personalized card and chocolate
Don't forget to include a card and chocolate with your infinity roses. Although the roses are the main event of your gift, the addition of a card and something sweet is just as important. A beautiful message full of love and some chocolate can brighten someone's day. Knowing that there is someone thinking of you and wishing you well will make the hospital stay a lot more bearable. You can choose from melt-in-the-mouth Lindt chocolate and 4 different card designs, which we offer in our store to go with our flower boxes.
While there are many factors to consider and information to gather before sending flowers to a hospital, perhaps the most important piece of information is whether the patient wants it. Once you find out, you can choose the perfect arrangement for them. Infinity flower boxes are a beautiful and long-lasting gift that your loved one or friend will be delighted to receive.
