Sending flowers to HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital

On SE Tiffany Avenue in Port St. Lucie, HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital has served the Treasure Coast for more than 40 years. The 282-bed hospital runs a 24/7 senior-friendly emergency room, The Birthing Center, orthopedics, surgery and rehabilitation.

Those services shape who you are probably sending to: a grandparent admitted through the senior ER, someone getting a new knee or hip, or a family welcoming a baby. Each calls for a slightly different gift, and each may sit on a unit with its own habits.

What HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital allows

We looked through the hospital's visitor information and found no rule on flowers, balloons or plants in patient rooms. The page covers visiting hours (every day, 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.) and parking help, but not deliveries.

Because nothing is written down, call the hospital at (772) 398-3100 and ask whether the patient's unit accepts fresh flowers. In many hospitals, maternity floors welcome them while intensive care does not, and latex balloons are often kept away from patients with allergies. Those are general norms we see widely, not policies St. Lucie has posted.

Where the delivery goes

Address the order to the patient by full name at HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital, 1800 SE Tiffany Ave, Port St. Lucie, FL 34952. Include a room number if you have it and your own phone number. Deliveries that arrive during the long visiting day, which starts at 6 a.m., are easier for staff to bring up.

Birth stays are short, often a day or two. If the baby has already arrived, check whether mom is still in the hospital before you place the order, or send the flowers home a few days later when the visitors have thinned out.

If flowers aren't an option

If the answer on fresh flowers is no, a card or a small balloon can still bring a smile. Mylar balloons are usually the safer choice in hospitals because latex is a common allergen. For an orthopedic patient heading to rehab, a book, puzzle or soft blanket may be more useful than a bouquet.

Visiting in person? The hospital runs a free shuttle from your car to any entrance. Dial (772) 807-6340 from the parking area, which helps if you are carrying an arrangement for an older relative.

What to send to a patient here

For a new baby, a soft pastel arrangement or a keepsake card works well; our birthday flowers guide has ideas that suit a first day too. For an older patient from the senior ER, pick a small, sturdy bouquet without heavy fragrance that won't tip over on a crowded table. For surgery recovery, see our get-well picks.
