Hospital Accommodations
People with electromagnetic hyper-sensitivity need accommodations for access to hospitals where they may need to stay for several days for medical procedures or tests.
Many hospitals make special arrangements and accommodations for people with environmental sensitivities, including electrical sensitivity and chemical sensitivity.
Where it is known in advance that a person with an environmental sensitivity is required to stay at a particular hospital or medical centre, it is recommended that contact with the welfare team is made beforehand to ensure suitable accommodations have been made.
