Hospital Theives?

Why do the hospital people keep warning me about not bringing valuables?? Is it really that dangerous? I don't remember this when I had kids. Have any of you had something stolen from the hospital? I really want my iPad there.

I had a private room so i had no issues. I will tell you, I took my iPad and never once had a desire to be on it!! I texted with family and friends and that was about it...I could never get comfortable enough to deal with my iPad.

I used my ipad a lot. I had it set up so my kids and I could facetime. I also watched netflix a bit and read. I was pretty comfortable though and didnt have a ton of pain. I went to Dr.Aceves so I wanted to be sure my kids and Icould keep in contact

Thank you so much for responding everyone! I have heard that I'll be too groggy to use it, but I will bring it just to FaceTime the kiddos

They told me at the hospital to just have a friend or family member hold on to valuables until I was transferred to my room. They said there was no where else they could keep it and be responsible for it.

I was told the same thing. Once I was in my room my husband brought me my iPad and I did use it and my phone to text friends.

Not necessarily the employees but could be other people who are at the hospital. That is a general disclaimer to let you know the hospital can not be responsible for your personal belongings. I work at a hospital.
