Send flowers to Royal Sussex County Hospital – next-day delivery
Want to send flowers to Royal Sussex County Hospital? A bouquet is a simple way to brighten a patient's day. As Brighton's largest teaching hospital, the Royal Sussex County Hospital sits on Eastern Road in Kemptown, just a short walk from the seafront, and cares for patients from across Brighton, Hove and the wider East Sussex region. Whether your friend or family member is recovering on a general ward, attending the cardiac unit, or staying with a relative in the maternity department, a fresh bouquet can make the clinical environment feel a little more like home. At Royal Sussex County Hospital, bouquets are left at the main reception or mailing room for staff to pass on, so add the patient's full name and ward to the address. Check with the ward first that fresh flowers are allowed, as some units do not accept them. For next-day delivery, order before 5:15pm Monday to Friday or before 10:45am on Saturday and Sunday. When placing your order, please include the patient's full name, ward name and, if known, the bed number. It is worth choosing compact, low-pollen arrangements such as roses, lisianthus, alstroemeria or seasonal mixed posies, as some wards at the Royal Sussex County Hospital restrict heavily scented flowers like lilies, particularly in respiratory and oncology areas.
