What hospitals accept — and what they don't
Our hospital post is the most-read page we have, and this is the short version. Most Las Vegas hospitals accept flowers on general floors. Intensive care and some specialty units do not, and the rules are about the unit, not the hospital, so call the hospital's front desk or ask us, because we deliver to these buildings daily and know the floors.
How delivery actually works at a hospital
Our driver hands your arrangement to the front or information desk — at St. Rose Siena, St. Rose San Martin and Spring Valley Hospital, the driver never goes up to the room. Staff or volunteers carry it from there. That is why the patient's full legal name and room number matter more than anything else on the order, and why a vase arrangement already in water is the safest format: nobody on the ward has to stop and arrange stems. One rule is absolute: flowers are not allowed in intensive care. Summerlin Hospital prints it plainly — flowers are delivered to your room as they are received, and not into the ICU.
Two campuses worth knowing: St. Rose Siena, on Saint Rose Parkway, opened in 2000 and is Southern Nevada's only faith-based non-profit hospital. Spring Valley Hospital opened in 2003 as the first acute-care hospital in the southwest part of Las Vegas and now runs 364 beds, all private rooms.
Safer bets for a hospital room
Compact arrangements in a container that can't spill, low-pollen flowers, nothing with a strong scent in a shared room. Plants are sometimes restricted on certain floors too.
These are the ones that pass: shop get-well flowers hospitals accept.
When the unit says no: send them home instead
If the unit says no flowers, the honest move is to send them to the house for the homecoming instead, and we will happily time that delivery instead.
Not sure about the unit? Call (702) 737-7077. We deliver to these buildings daily, and we know the floors.
