How to send flowers to a patient at Newark Beth Israel
- Confirm the patient is admitted and which unit they are on. Call the main number, 973-926-7000, and ask; the unit determines whether flowers are allowed.
- Order online with the hospital's street address. Use 201 Lyons Avenue, Newark, NJ 07112, 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 Newark Beth Israel
Newark Beth Israel Medical Center is a 653-bed teaching hospital that shares its campus with Children's Hospital of New Jersey. The hospital describes its heart transplant program as one of the top 15 in the nation and its advanced lung disease and transplant program as the only one in New Jersey. A new glass-enclosed main lobby at Lyons Avenue and Osborne Terrace opened in 2023.
Children's Hospital of New Jersey has inpatient pediatrics, a pediatric intensive care unit and a neonatal intensive care unit within a Level IV regional perinatal center. Mothers deliver in the Mother-Infant Pavilion, which has private labor rooms. The hospital also has a cardiothoracic intensive care unit and a cancer and blood disorders center.
Newark Beth Israel flower policy
Newark Beth Israel publishes no flower or balloon restriction. Its visiting guidelines do say that immunocompromised patients may not have visitors, which matters at a transplant and cancer hospital: for a transplant, oncology or intensive care patient, call the unit before sending fresh flowers or plants.
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.

Newark Beth Israel delivery FAQ
Can transplant patients at Newark Beth Israel receive flowers?
The hospital does not publish a rule, but its visiting guidelines bar visitors for immunocompromised patients, and transplant patients are often in that group. Call Patient Information at 973-926-8000 and ask the unit; a Mylar balloon or a card is the safer choice.
Is Children's Hospital of New Jersey at the same address?
Yes. Children's Hospital of New Jersey is part of the Newark Beth Israel campus at 201 Lyons Avenue, Newark, NJ 07112. Add the child's full name and the unit to the delivery instructions.
Can I send flowers to a patient at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center?
Yes. Order online with the hospital's address (201 Lyons Avenue, Newark, NJ 07112), 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 Newark Beth Israel?
Usually, when you order in the morning. The hospital is inside the regular Newark 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.
