Internet, Telephone and TV Services

Wi-Fi and Internet Service

Wi-Fi and internet service at GBGH is complimentary for patients and visitors.

Telephone and Television

Starting in January 2024, GBGH is transitioning to having patients use their own devices – such as cell phones and tablets (iPad) – while in hospital for entertainment or phone calls. This means there will no longer be TVs in patient rooms on the 2 North and 2 East inpatient units. Landline phones will also be removed from all patient rooms. The hospital provides Wi-Fi access, which patients can use with their devices for the duration of their stay. If a patient does not have a cell phone and/or tablet, the hospital can lend a tablet (iPad) or phone. To learn more about borrowing these devices, please ask your care team.
