Flowers to Singleton Hospital – order online
You can send flowers to Singleton Hospital to show someone you are thinking of them during their stay. Located on Sketty Lane in the western suburbs of Swansea, Singleton Hospital is one of the principal hospitals serving the city and the wider Swansea Bay area, offering a wide range of services including oncology, maternity, ophthalmology and general medicine. With its busy wards and large catchment across South Wales, fresh flowers can offer real comfort to patients and their families during what is often a stressful time. At Singleton 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. Orders placed before 5:15pm on weekdays (10:45am at weekends) are sent for next-day delivery, and 93% of these arrive on the next working day. Deliveries are timed to arrive during the working day so they are ready and waiting when visitors or patients are settled. Please note that, in line with infection control guidance common across Welsh NHS hospitals, some wards (such as ICU and certain oncology areas) may restrict fresh flowers, so it is worth checking the ward policy before ordering.
Frequently asked questions about flowers to Singleton Hospital
What time will my flowers be delivered to Singleton Hospital?
Delivery to Singleton Hospital happens during the day with Royal Mail Tracked 24 or a courier, and a specific time cannot be chosen. Deliveries can take place until 7:30pm, and in busy periods sometimes later.
What happens if the patient has been discharged from Singleton Hospital?
Once a bouquet has been dispatched it goes to the address given, so if the patient may be discharged soon, it can be safer to send the flowers to their home address instead.
Are there any wards at Singleton Hospital where flowers are not allowed?
Yes, like most NHS hospitals in Wales, Singleton Hospital restricts fresh flowers on certain wards for infection control reasons. This typically includes the Intensive Care Unit, some oncology and haematology areas, and occasionally the neonatal unit. Policies can change, so it is worth phoning the ward directly before ordering.
