- Your Memorial Sloan-Kettering physician will tell you which test results and reports to send from your doctor at home, including x-rays and pathology slides and reports. You may need to sign a release form to obtain these items from your home hospital or doctor's office.
- You will need to bring your child's Social Security number as well as information and telephone numbers about your child's health insurance. If there are any questions or concerns about coverage or authorizations, your Memorial Sloan-Kettering physician's office can arrange for you to speak with a Patient Financial Services representative before your arrival.
- Bring a list of any prescription medications that your child may be taking, along with dosages. While staying in the hospital, your child will receive his or her medication from one of the staff.
- Be sure to bring school assignments and school books so that your child can continue with ongoing work. This material is also helpful to our New York City Board of Education-certified teachers, who will work with your child whether they are hospitalized or in our Day Hospital.
- Please do not bring large amounts of money or any jewelry to the hospital.
- Live plants, fresh flowers, pets of any kind, and latex (rubber) balloons are not permitted in our pediatric patients' rooms.
