Sion You admission

Please go to hospital admissions at the time that you were given by your GP or by the hospital.

If you are required to fast for your tests or treatment, please do not eat, drink or smoke during the 6 hours prior to your arrival.

If you are being admitted on an emergency basis, you (or a family member or friend) will need to provide the required documents to the admissions office as soon as possible.

You will wear an ID bracelet during your stay at Valais Hospital. The nursing staff will explain:

• Why it is important and helpful to be able to easily identify patients.
• The risks related to incorrectly identifying patients, such as medication errors, and issues with transfusions and tests
