We suggest that you deposit your valuables and money with the MHCP Business Office for safe keeping. This hospital cannot be responsible for personal possessions which are lost or missing. On admission, a pin money account can be opened for you at the Business Office. Patients can receive their pin money at the Business Office in the Administration Building. If you receive the monthly Personal Needs Allowance from the Ontario Government or earn money in the vocational workshop, the money can be deposited into your account for you.
Some wards have washing machines and dryers.
If you are able, you can do your own laundry. MHCP will dry clean free of charge articles of clothing issued by the hospital. MHCP uses a commercial laundry for this service and we do not recommend that delicate or expensive clothing be sent out for cleaning. If you have personal clothing that must be dry cleaned, please point the articles out to ward staff. If you cannot afford to pay for your own dry cleaning, ask Nursing staff to request a subsidy for you.
