Flower and Fruit Basket Restrictions

Many oncology patients have specific needs directly related to their low immune systems. Because of this, flowers, plants and fruit baskets are not allowed on the Oncology Unit. We appreciate your cooperation. You are welcome to receive any artificial or silk flower arrangements to brighten your stay.
