Bedside Service Questions

Planning a Hospital Notarization

Can a notary come directly to a hospital room?

Yes, when the hospital permits outside visitors and the patient is able to participate. The appointment should be coordinated with the patient's care team, facility policies, and the people who must be present.

Can a hospital notary notarize a power of attorney?

A notary may notarize an eligible document when the signer is present, understands the document, demonstrates willingness to sign, and meets applicable identification requirements. The notary cannot provide legal advice or determine whether a document is appropriate.

What if the patient is unable to sign normally?

Alternative signature procedures may be possible in some circumstances, but they depend on Maryland law, the document, the patient's ability to communicate, and the receiving institution's requirements. Discuss the situation before booking.

How quickly can a bedside appointment be arranged?

Availability varies by timing, location, hospital access requirements, and the complexity of the signing. Call as soon as the need is known so the appointment can be coordinated responsibly.
