Hospital Entertainment - You can rent iPads as Gifts for Patients

Families are renting iPads and WiFi as gifts ideas for patients in Los Angeles hospitals from Travel Entertainment iPads. Hospitals in Los Angeles include Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Kaiser Hospital, UCLA Medical Center, USC Norris Cancer Hospital, Torrance Memorial Medical Center, and Good Samaritan Medical Center.


We have all seen the news lately that Happy Hospitals make Happy Patients. And that makes sense to me.  As does, giving a great gift to a patient in a hospital that will help to cheer their spirits, help their recovery, and hopefully, make their stay in the hospital just a bit easier. 

But we also know that hospitals can be very boring and lonely places, and they are never as comfortable and warm as one's own home. Choosing gifts that help improve comfort, relieve boredom and lift the mood are definitely ideal. 

That's where the iPad comes in. The iPad has pretty much everything that will definitely remove the boredom and increase the mood of your hospital patient.  It is small and light enough for a child or senior, and the app technology of the iPad makes the fun and usefulness of it endless.  What's also cool about renting an iPad from Travel Entertainment iPads?  You choose the time period of the rental - daily, weekly, and monthly rentals are available.

When renting an iPad from Travel Entertainment iPads for a patient gift, the patient will have use of:

* 1 (one) iPad with WiFi enabled.
* Skype - for live video chat with friends and family (you must set up free personal account).
* Free Netflix - to watch unlimited movies and TV shows.
* Pandora Radio - to listen to your favorite artist or songs.
* Books, Magazines and Newspapers.
* Safari - for web browsing (i.e. Facebook), and email checking.
* Games - like Solitaire, Words with Friends and Angry Birds. 
* iPad Camera and Video - to capture the moments when family and friends are visiting.

In addition, Travel Entertainment iPads also offers other accessories and services that compliment the use of the iPad in the hospital, such as:

* Mobile broadband WiFi (For Los Angeles Only ) -  No more searching for WiFi - Get your personal unlimited data 4G mobile broadband hotspot.
* Photo and Video Capture service- Take all the pictures and video you like, and we'll send them all to you at the end of your rental. 
* iPad TV connector - Turn your hospital room flat screen TV into a movie screen.  Use our connector to attach the iPad to your TV and watch Netflix movies and TV shows on a larger screen.  (TV must have proper connections)

With the above list, your patient whether in a hospital, convalescent home or nursing home, will definitely be entertained and not as lonely as before. Which is good for you and for them.

Please note: All iPads are sanitized thoroughly after each rental and all personal data, files, pictures (if not using our Photo and Video Capture Service) are deleted from iPad.  Also, before you rent an iPad, please find out if electronics are accepted in the patients room.

Travel Entertainment iPads also offers free delivery, and they will meet you at the local Los Angeles hospital, nursing home or home, making this service even more convenient.

What a better present than renting an iPad as a patient gift.  It is thoughtful, useful, leaves a great impression, shows them you love them...but most of all, it makes the patient in your life HAPPY!
