Shirley Ryan AbilityLab Inpatient Program

OUTSIDE APPOINTMENTS We are committed to providing you with the best care and experience. Should you have an appointment that is medically necessary or supports your rehabilitation goals, staff members will help you get to the appointment. We will work with you to reschedule any routine appointments (e.g., doctor, clinic, dentist, etc.) outside our hospital until you are discharged.

Visiting Hours & Policy We encourage visitors and want to make families and friends feel welcome and at home. Visiting hours are every day from 8 am to 8 pm. All visitors under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult other than the patient. In certain situations, visitor restrictions may apply. For security reasons, all visitors must register in the Sky Lobby (10th floor) and obtain an identification badge, which must be worn at all times while in the building. For the safety of our patients, visitors must remain within areas they are authorized to visit, as noted on their visitor badge. Additionally, visitors must: • Conduct themselves in a manner considerate of patients, staff and other visitors • Comply with all Shirley Ryan AbilityLab policies and procedures • Refrain from visiting if they are experiencing any cold, flu-like or respiratory symptoms Exceptions to our regular visiting hours may be granted by the nurse manager/ designee or the nursing house supervisor for specific reasons, such as learning a patient’s care or providing ongoing supervision. Please note that our visitor policy is always subject to change. Check with your admission liaison or visit sralab.org/visitor for the most up-to-date information. Parking We will provide you and your family with a complimentary patient parking access card, allowing one vehicle to enter and exit the garage throughout the day at no charge. The access card is valid for 15 days from the date of issuance. However, accommodations can be made for patients with extended stays. Please contact your unit assistant for more information. Additional guest parking rates are: Valet: $3 with disabled parking placard

Loose-fitting or elastic pants are encouraged (preferred to shorts), as well as comfortable shoes. Also, bring your regular toiletries to store in your room. WHERE YOU’LL STAY Every patient has a private room for the duration of their stay. Your room is where you will rest, bathe, dress and keep your belongings.
