Recognize an employee

Because our staff cares so deeply for those we help, there are those who often go beyond the call to provide great care.

Spiritual care

Pastoral Care services are available to all Baylor Scott & White patients and families.

Our team of experienced chaplains and trained volunteers will respond to your spiritual needs professionally and confidentially.

Patients and family members may feel free to contact a staff member to request a chaplain. Your own priest, rabbi, minister or other spiritual leader is always welcome to visit you while you are here.

Bibles are available upon request through our chaplains. Please contact your nurse if you would like to receive a Bible.

Visitor lounges

There are designated lounges for visitors in the main lobby and on the second floor outside of the operating room. Specific areas have been designated for guests in other areas.

If you are in a large group, we ask for your consideration of other patients’ families when seating is limited.

Wireless laptops can be used in most areas by connecting to our visitor wireless network. Charging stations and outlets are also available in select areas.

The use of wireless communication devices, such as cell phones, notebooks and laptops, can interfere with medical equipment and is restricted in all patient care areas. Please restrict your use of these devices to visitor lounges and non-patient care areas.

Visitor guidelines

Family and friends are welcome to visit our hospital in Brenham; however, patient care is our primary concern. In order to provide a high quality of care, general guidelines have been established. 

  • You may have two visitors at the bedside at one time and visits should be kept brief.
  • Visitors should be considerate of patients by maintaining a quiet environment and avoiding unnecessary noise.
  • People with contagious diseases should not visit.
  • Visitors may be asked to leave the room during tests or treatments or when the doctor or nurse needs to see the patient.
  • Visitors should check with the nurse before bringing gifts of food or drink to patients.
  • Children are generally not allowed on patient care units. Please contact your nurse regarding your unit’s policy.
  • All patients have the right to identify a support (visitor) or patient representative (decision-maker) of their choice. This designated person is a person who can visit a patient without limitation or restriction unless visitation would interfere with the care of the patient and or care of other patients. The patient has a right to withdraw or change this designation at any time during their hospitalization either verbally or in writing.
  • Members of the clergy may visit at any time.
