Frequently asked questions about flowers to Bishop Auckland Hospital
What time can I have flowers delivered to Bishop Auckland Hospital?
We deliver to Bishop Auckland Hospital Monday to Saturday between 9am and 5pm. For same-day delivery, please place your order before 12 noon, and our driver will bring your bouquet to the main reception. We recommend timing deliveries to arrive during the morning or early afternoon so that staff have plenty of time to pass the flowers to the relevant ward before visiting hours. If your loved one is being discharged soon, let us know and we can arrange a convenient alternative address.
Do I need to know the ward number when sending flowers to Bishop Auckland Hospital?
Including the ward name or number is extremely helpful, as Bishop Auckland Hospital has several departments and wards. While reception staff can usually locate patients by full name and date of birth, providing the ward speeds up internal delivery considerably. If you do not know the ward, simply give us as much detail as possible at checkout, and our team will pass the bouquet to the main reception desk, where staff will ensure it reaches the correct patient safely.
Are there any flowers I should avoid sending to Bishop Auckland Hospital?
Most wards at Bishop Auckland Hospital welcome cut flowers, but we recommend avoiding heavily scented blooms such as oriental lilies, as strong fragrances can be unpleasant for unwell patients or those nearby. Pollen-heavy flowers are also best avoided where possible. Our florists are happy to create allergy-friendly, low-fragrance bouquets featuring roses, gerberas, alstroemeria and seasonal favourites. Potted plants and arrangements in water-filled containers are usually fine, but please check with the specific ward if your loved one is in an intensive care setting.
