Telephones / Cell Phones
Windom Area Health provides courtesy phones for public use in the main lobby, emergency waiting room, family room, cafeteria, and in all patient rooms. Mobile telephone use is permitted within the hospital. Restricted use may be necessary in some hospital locations. Chargers may be available by contacting the nurses station.
Internet Access
As a service to our employees, patients, and visitors, Windom Area Health offers wireless Internet access on our guest network. Access to the guest network is open. Users must agree to the Terms and Conditions.
Patient Meals
We offer ‘Restaurant Style’ meal service with menus available in all rooms. Meal selections will be provided based on the patient’s medical and nutritional needs, as determined by the patient’s physician and nursing staff. If a patient chooses not to order from the menu, the Nutrition Services staff will deliver a meal at the following times.
Meal Time Served
Breakfast: 7:30 a.m. Lunch: 11:30 a.m. Dinner: 5:30 p.m.
The nursing staff should approve any food brought into the hospital for patients to ensure it meets the patient’s dietary needs.
iPads
Windom Area Health has designated iPads for patient and/or visitor use within the facility. These iPads may be checked out from the main nurses station on a first-come, first-serve basis, with consideration given to equal opportunity for use among patients. A patient or visitor must be 18 years of age or older, sign a usage waiver, and provide a form of government photo identification (a driver's license, for example) as a condition of checking out an iPad. Inpatients are exempt from this ID requirement.
