  Children and young people in the family?

  Children and young people are affected when someone in the family is ill and needs to understand what is happening. It could be that you yourself are a patient, a caregiver, or that you are a parent of a sick child with siblings. We at the hospital will help ensure that the children and young people in your family are well cared for.

  Library

  The patient library in Arendal is located in the basement of the main building. It is self-service and open 24 hours a day. Here you can borrow books and read newspapers and magazines.

  Flowers and perfume

  Many people wish to bring a floral greeting when visiting a patient in the hospital, but due to allergies and the risk of infection, several of our departments are flower-free. We would appreciate it if you who wish to bring a gift for the patient choose something other than flowers.
  
  Some patients also react allergically to perfume or creams containing perfume. We ask that this be taken into consideration.

  Photography, filming, and sound recording

  Many patients and relatives want to take photos/videos or blog about their time at the hospital. Of course, you are welcome to do so, as long as you respect the privacy of other patients and staff.
  
  Here are a couple of good tips for using social media for you as a patient or caregiver:

  • Respect others. You must have consent if you want to take pictures or videos of patients or employees. All patients are entitled to privacy when they are at the hospital.
  • It is the parents/guardians who decide whether you can take pictures of children or publish pictures of them online. Parents should consider what is best for the child. When the child has turned 12, great weight should be given to what the child thinks. When the child has turned 15, they themselves decide whether it is okay to be photographed and whether it should be published.
  • Remember that employees must also give their consent if you want to publish photos you have taken of them.
  • You should remove content you have published if the person it concerns asks you to. If others have posted pictures of you on the internet without permission, you can ask the person to delete them. If you are not heard, you can contact: www.delete-me.no.

  Audio recording
  It is not illegal to record conversations you are participating in for private use. However, publishing and sharing requires consent from the person you are talking to. Secret recordings of conversations you are not participating in are illegal.

  : Chapel/Quiet room

  Sometimes we need a space for rest and reflection. We have three such rooms available for you and your loved ones. The rooms are open to all, regardless of belief and faith.

  There is also the possibility of holding a memorial service in the chapel in the event of death. This is arranged by contacting the hospital chaplains.
