Flower Delivery to OhioHealth Rehabilitation Hospital
Milano's UpTowne Florist delivers flowers, plants and balloons to OhioHealth Rehabilitation Hospital on Dennison Avenue in Victorian Village. Rehab patients usually stay longer than patients in a regular hospital, so we help you choose gifts that last. We'll send a photo once your delivery arrives.
OhioHealth Rehabilitation Hospital
1087 Dennison Ave., Columbus, OH 43201
About the Rehabilitation Hospital
OhioHealth Rehabilitation Hospital opened on August 1, 2013. It is a 74-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital, run as a partnership between OhioHealth and Select Medical. Patients come here after a stroke, a brain or spinal cord injury, an amputation or another serious illness, to rebuild strength and relearn everyday tasks through intensive therapy. There's also a second campus in Dublin, so check which one the patient is at.
Gifts That Last Through a Longer Stay
Rehab stays often run a week or more, so cut flowers can fade before the patient goes home. A green plant or a blooming plant, like an orchid or a kalanchoe, can stay in the room the whole time and go home afterward. If you prefer fresh flowers, ask for long-lasting varieties like chrysanthemums, alstroemeria and carnations.
Some families send a smaller arrangement every week instead of one big one. Something new to look at each week marks the progress and keeps the room bright.
Keep It Easy to Manage
Patients in rehab spend much of the day in therapy and may be working on fine motor skills. Pick a container that's stable and hard to tip, and skip anything that needs daily watering. Balloons are fine in most rooms and are an easy way to celebrate a milestone, like a first step or a day closer to going home.
Ordering: same-day delivery is available when you order early in the day. We're closed Sundays. We deliver to the hospital's front desk, staff bring your gift to the patient, and we send you a photo.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best gift for a long rehab stay?
A plant or a long-lasting arrangement usually works best, since rehab stays often run a week or more. Milano's UpTowne Florist can also set up smaller weekly deliveries.
Can plants be delivered to a hospital?
Plants may be accepted in some general-care areas but restricted in intensive care, transplant, oncology, or other specialty units. Confirm the hospital and unit policy before ordering.
What information is needed for hospital flower delivery?
Provide the patient's full name as registered, hospital name and address, room number when available, unit or department, and a contact number. Confirm that the patient has not been discharged, transferred, registered under another name, or placed in a restricted unit.
What flowers are best for a hospital room?
Compact, stable, low-fragrance designs are often best for hospital rooms because space can be limited. Avoid highly scented flowers when sensitivity is a concern, and consider hospital restrictions before adding balloons, plants, glass, or oversized designs.
Can you find a patient's room number for me?
The shop may ask hospital staff to locate a patient, but privacy rules and hospital policy may prevent disclosure or acceptance. The sender should provide the patient's full registered name and confirm admission whenever possible.
Can you guarantee an exact delivery time?
Exact delivery times generally cannot be guaranteed because routes, traffic, weather, recipient availability, and institutional receiving procedures can change during the day. A service, visitation, school dismissal, business closing time, or other true deadline should be supplied with the order so it can be prioritized appropriately.
