Phones & Devices

Learn more about the policies for phones and devices at the University of Michigan Health.

Cell Phones

Do NOT use cell phones within one foot of a medical device. This guideline includes two-way radios and push-to-talk functions. Cell phones may be used in hospital lobbies, on patient floors and in patient rooms. Cell phones may not be used in the ICU except in waiting areas.

Public Phones

Public phones are located on several floors of our hospitals. Ask for directions at any Information Desk, or ask a Unit Host.

Computers & Internet

Internet access is available throughout many parts of U-M Health.

Security

Please keep in mind that hospitals and health centers are essentially public places. Do not leave valuables unattended.
