What to wear (and what not to wear) when visiting Reception Medical Center
Dress code problems are one of the easiest ways to lose a visit. Here's what to wear—and what to avoid—at Reception Medical Center so you can walk in confident.
If you're 16 or older, bring a valid picture ID. Reception Medical Center won't let visitors age 16+ into the visiting area without one - so don't leave it in the car or at home.
Start with the basics: you must wear a shirt. Show up without one, and you won't get in.
Shoes are required too. Add footwear to your mental checklist before you leave the house.
- ✓ Heelys (shoes with wheels)
- ✓ Any footwear with removable parts
Note: Keep it simple - wear a shirt and regular shoes. Skip Heelys or anything with removable parts.
Wearing a dress, skirt, or Bermuda-length shorts? Length matters. Reception Medical Center won't allow anything more than three inches above the knee.
Tip: Check the length while standing and sitting before you leave. The three-inch rule can surprise you at check-in.
