How to send flowers to a patient at Hoboken University Hospital
- Confirm the patient is admitted and which unit they are on. Call the main number, 201-418-1000, and ask; the unit determines whether flowers are allowed.
- Order online with the hospital's street address. Use 308 Willow Avenue, Hoboken, NJ 07030, not a P.O. box.
- Add the patient's full legal name and the unit or room. Put it in the recipient name and delivery-instructions fields so the information desk can route it.
- Order in the morning. Patients are often discharged before noon; an early same-day order has the best chance of arriving in time.
- Include your phone number. The florist calls you if the patient has moved or been discharged, so the delivery can be redirected.
About Hoboken University Hospital
Hoboken University Hospital is the current name of Hoboken University Medical Center. It belongs to Hudson Regional Health, the system that replaced CarePoint Health, and some official pages still use the old name. The hospital traces its history to 1863 and has a 34-bay emergency room, a separate OB-GYN emergency department and a Family Birth Unit with private rooms.
Besides maternity, the hospital lists inpatient rehabilitation, a transitional care unit, child and adult behavioral health, and a cancer program whose infusion center was remodeled in 2026.
Hoboken University Hospital flower policy
Neither the Hudson Regional Health site nor the older CarePoint pages publish a flower or balloon policy for this hospital. Call Patient Information at 201-418-1018 with the patient's name and ask the unit before you order.
As at most hospitals, flowers are generally welcome on medical, surgical, maternity and rehabilitation floors and not permitted in intensive-care units or rooms with immunocompromised patients. Latex balloons are usually banned; Mylar balloons are fine. If you are unsure which unit the patient is on, call the hospital and ask before ordering.

Visiting hours and arriving at Hoboken University Hospital
Confirm visiting hours by phone, because the two official sites disagree: Hudson Regional Health's system-wide policy lists 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., while the hospital's older page lists 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. with two visitors at a time.
Gift shop at Hoboken University Hospital
Neither official site lists a gift shop for the hospital, so plan on an outside florist.
What to send to a hospital room
- Compact vase arrangement, low fragrance, in a stable non-glass container: fits a crowded bedside table.
- Bright gerbera daisies or sunflowers: cheerful, scent-free and sturdy.
- A small flowering plant: goes home with the patient and keeps giving.
- Mylar balloon bouquet: the fallback when the unit does not allow flowers.

Hoboken University Hospital delivery FAQ
Is Hoboken University Medical Center the same as Hoboken University Hospital?
Yes. Hudson Regional Health lists the hospital as Hoboken University Hospital, formerly Hoboken University Medical Center. The address, 308 Willow Avenue, and the main number, 201-418-1000, are the same, and either name works on a delivery as long as the street address is right.
Can I send new-baby flowers to Hoboken University Hospital?
The hospital has a labor and delivery unit and a Family Birth Unit with private rooms. It does not publish a flower policy, so call Patient Information at 201-418-1018 to confirm the mother is still admitted before ordering; maternity stays are short.
Can I send flowers to a patient at Hoboken University Hospital?
Yes. Order online with the hospital's address (308 Willow Avenue, Hoboken, NJ 07030), the patient's full name and the unit or room. The florist delivers to the information desk, and hospital staff bring the arrangement to the patient.
Do I need the room number?
It helps but is not required. The patient's full legal name and the unit are enough for the desk to route the delivery.
Is same-day delivery available to Hoboken University Hospital?
Usually, when you order in the morning. The hospital is inside the regular Hoboken delivery zone; the cutoff for your date is shown at checkout.
What if the patient is discharged before the flowers arrive?
The hospital will refuse the delivery and the florist will contact you to redirect it, normally to the patient's home. Order early in the day to avoid this.
