Kristiansand Hospital Pharmacy

Children and young people are affected when someone in the family is ill and need to understand what is happening. You may be a patient or a relative, or you may be the parent of sick children who have siblings. We at the hospital will help ensure that the children and young people in your family are well cared for.

Children as relatives

Many people want to bring flowers when visiting a patient at the hospital, but due to allergies and the risk of infection, several of our departments are flower-free. If you would like to bring the patient a gift, we appreciate you choosing something other than flowers.

Some patients also have allergic reactions to perfume or creams containing perfume. We ask you to take this into consideration.

Many patients and relatives want to take photos/videos or blog about their time in hospital. This is of course permitted, as long as you respect the privacy of other patients and staff.

Here are a few helpful tips on using social media for patients and relatives:

  • Be considerate of others. You must have consent if you want to take photos or videos of patients or staff. All patients are entitled to privacy while in hospital.
  • Parents/guardians decide whether you may take photos of children or publish photos of their children online. Parents should consider what is best for the child. Once the child has turned 12, great weight must be given to the child’s opinion. Once the child has turned 15, they decide for themselves whether they agree to be photographed and whether the photos may be published.
  • Remember that staff must also give their permission if you want to publish photos you have taken of them.
  • You should remove content you have published if the person concerned asks you to. If someone has posted photos of you online without your permission, you can ask them to delete them. If they do not comply, you can contact: www.slettmeg.no.

Audio recording
It is not illegal to record conversations you take part in for private use. However, publishing or sharing them requires the consent of the person you are speaking with. Secretly recording conversations you do not take part in is illegal.

Our hairdresser is located on the third floor of the hospital’s main building and is open to everyone. If needed, the hairdresser can come to your ward. The hairdresser also fits wigs. Opening hours are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 09:00 to 16:00.

Have you worked in healthcare or received healthcare outside the Nordic countries during the past year?

This could include, for example, a hospital stay, extensive outpatient treatment or a visit to the dentist. In that case, your GP must test you for bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics (for example, MRSA).

Ask your GP to send you the test results before your appointment with us, and bring them with you when you come to the hospital.

We encourage everyone to use their mobile phones considerately and be mindful of fellow patients. It is important to put your phone on silent at night, and on silent or vibrate during the day. Out of consideration for other patients, please leave the room if you need to have a lengthy conversation.
