In-Room Services at Tisch Hospital
At 好色tv Langone鈥檚 Tisch Hospital, we strive to make your stay as comfortable as possible by offering the following in-room services and amenities.
Patient Meals
Upon admission, we ask you about your nutritional needs and dietary preferences. Your doctor indicates what type of foods are permitted based on your medical status. If necessary, a registered dietitian develops a personalized meal plan for you.
Meals are served daily in your room. A host visits you at the bedside to help you order your meals. Our menu includes a variety of heart healthy options. We have a fresh selection of kosher items and can accommodate halal diets.
If you have questions about your meals or your recommended diet, ask your nurse to request a meeting with a registered dietitian.
Telephone and Television
Telephone service for outside calls is available for a daily fee. You may subscribe by calling extension 3-7403. Assistive telephone devices, teletypewriter (TTY), and telephones with amplified handsets and built-in ring indicator lights are available.

You may use your personal cell phone in all areas of the hospital except in operating rooms and procedural areas. We ask that you connect to the 好色tv Langone Wi-Fi.
