FAQ

Can I send any type of flower to a hospital, and how do I choose the appropriate ones for delivery?

Sending flowers to a hospital is a thoughtful gesture, but it does require some consideration. Not all flowers are suitable for a hospital environment, especially considering the various allergies or sensitivities that patients or healthcare workers may have. Some hospitals may have specific guidelines regarding the types of flowers allowed.

At "My Global Flowers," we specialize in hospital-friendly flower arrangements, carefully selecting flowers that are typically non-allergenic and fragrance-free. Popular choices include tulips, daisies, and sunflowers. Our expert florists can guide you in choosing the perfect bouquet, considering the patient's preferences, the hospital's policies, and any special medical considerations. If you're looking for something unique, we also offer customization to ensure that your gesture is both beautiful and considerate of the hospital setting.

How does the same day delivery option work for sending flowers to hospitals, and what if I need to send them at a specific time?

Same-day delivery is one of our most appreciated services, especially when it comes to sending flowers to hospitals. We understand that timing can be crucial, and our same-day delivery option ensures that your flowers arrive fresh and at the right moment.

To avail of the same-day delivery, you'll need to place your order before a specific cut-off time, usually early in the day. Once the order is confirmed, we'll coordinate with our local florist partners to prepare and deliver the arrangement. If you need the flowers to arrive at a particular time, such as before visiting hours or on a special occasion, you can specify this while placing the order. We'll do our best to accommodate your request, working closely with the hospital's reception to ensure that the delivery aligns with the patient's schedule and the hospital's regulations.

What happens if the patient is discharged or moved to a different room before the flowers are delivered?

If the patient is discharged or moved to a different room before the flower delivery, our delivery team will coordinate with the hospital's staff to determine the best course of action. If the patient has been moved within the same hospital, we will deliver the flowers to the new room. If the patient has been discharged, we can redirect the delivery to a home address or hold the flowers for pick-up as per your instructions.

Are there any restrictions on the size or type of arrangements I can send to a hospital room?

Hospitals may have specific guidelines or restrictions regarding the size or type of flower arrangements allowed in patient rooms. This is often to ensure the comfort and safety of patients and staff. It's advisable to check with the hospital or consult with our customer service team, who can guide you in choosing an arrangement that complies with the hospital's policies.

I add other gifts like balloons or stuffed animals with the flower delivery to a hospital?

Yes, many customers choose to add additional gifts like balloons or stuffed animals to their flower delivery. However, it's essential to be aware of the hospital's policies regarding such items. Some hospitals may have restrictions on balloons, especially latex, due to potential allergies. Our team at "My Global Flowers" can assist you in selecting suitable add-ons that comply with the hospital's guidelines and complement your thoughtful flower arrangement.
