Send get-well flowers to a loved one in a hospital anywhere in the United States and Canada easily. Provide the hospital address or use their email or mobile number to have the recipient help you with the details you’re not sure about!
Sending flowers to a hospital can be a meaningful way to show you care, but it can often come with challenges. Social Flowers gives you flexibility to ensure your thoughtful get well gift arrives at the right place and time anywhere in the United States or Canada.
You can send flowers the traditional way by providing the delivery address, or use a modern solution and send flowers with email, or mobile to have the recipient help with information you’re not sure about.
When You Know the Hospital And All the Details
You can provide the hospital address and use that option when you know:
- The hospital name and address
- The patient's status and room number
- The date and time the flowers should arrive
- The patient’s name
To use this option, at checkout, for the ‘Delivery Address’ dropdown, choose the ‘Provided By Me’ option. You’ll be able to select the date and provide the patient’s name. You can add the patient’s room number or other details in the ‘Special Instructions’ section.
When You’re Unsure and Need Help With the Details
Illness is often unexpected and communication is either limited or relayed through a third-party.
Questions you may have when someone is in the hospital:
- What hospital are they at?
- What is the room number?
- What is their status - are they able to receive flowers?
- Are they still in the hospital, or are they going to be discharged?
- Are they in a part of the hospital that can receive flowers?
- Do they prefer getting flowers at home or in the hospital?
- What is the full name of the patient?
You can have the recipient help you send flowers by using:
The recipient receives a “You’ve Got Flowers” link and they fill in the blanks. They provide the hospital name and choose a date to receive the flowers. The ‘Special Instructions’ section allows them to fill in their room number and other information that may be needed.
Your recipient can also choose to receive the flowers at home if they’ve been discharged or if they prefer to enjoy your flowers there.
Benefits of Sending Get Well Flowers by Email, Mobile or Social Media
- Filling in the Blanks: They provide valuable information you don’t have
- Deciding the Timing: Your recipient selects where and when to receive the flowers
- Allowing for Flexibility: It gives them the chance to accommodate changes in their recovery status or hospital rules
- Choosing Hospital or Home Delivery: They can choose where to enjoy your flowers
- Making It Risk Free: You’re not charged if they don’t accept but you’ve shown them you care
Share the Joy of Flowers Through Photo Sharing
One of the best features of sending Social Flowers is the lasting connection between recipient and senders through the joy of photos. When they share photos, we’ll send you a text and you get to see the smile on their faces and share their joy during a difficult moment. We encourage photo-sharing after delivery by offering the incentive of credits — up to $50 for future orders! Not only do we reward you, but we also reward them, which creates a lasting bond between both of you.
Let Us Help You With Your Mission!
Social Flowers takes the stress out of sending flowers to a hospital and provides a great experience for both recipient and sender. While you can always go the classic route by providing an address, if you don’t have all the details , the recipient can help you fill in the blanks.
By involving the recipient in the process they know exactly when and where to expect the delivery. With Social Flowers, sending comfort to those who need it most is simple, thoughtful, and convenient.
A Personal Story from Brian, One of Our Founders
My friend Nancy was having surgery at a local hospital and my mother and I wanted to send her flowers to show our support and let her know we were thinking of her.
I had been to Nancy’s home, but I couldn’t remember her exact address to send flowers. We also didn’t know the date of surgery or if she was staying in the hospital overnight. Fortunately, I had her mobile number to send her an arrangement through Social Flowers.
Sending through Social Flowers also allowed Nancy to choose where the flowers were delivered. Nancy wasn’t admitted to the hospital overnight, so she chose instead to have the flowers delivered to her house. Not long after I placed the order, I got a text back from Nancy thanking us.
My personal experience using Social Flowers reminded me of the problems we are solving, the experience we are providing and the thoughtful connections we are making.
