Private Inpatient Hospital Suites
Confidential Medical Care
A private hospital suite offers patients a personal space in which to settle in, become familiar with their surroundings, and establish a comfortable daily routine. Over the course of their 28-day stay, the opportunity to keep personal belongings nearby and enjoy the privacy of their own room can become especially meaningful. Conversations with Dr. Payán and the medical team take place with respect for each patient's confidentiality and dignity, providing a comfortable setting to ask questions, share personal concerns, and speak openly about how they are feeling.
Comfort Throughout Your Stay
Patients are welcome to wear their own comfortable clothing and bring personal belongings that make their suite feel familiar.

The medical and nursing teams provide monitoring, medications, assistance with individual needs, and attentive support throughout the inpatient program. Dr. Edgar Payán remains personally involved in each patient's medical care, following their progress and clinical response during treatment.
The reassurance of compassionate care is often found in everyday moments: a nurse who listens, a physician who takes time to answer a question, and the comfort of knowing your concerns are heard.
Personalized Nutrition and Freshly Prepared Meals
Thoughtful Meal Planning for Each Patient
As part of the patient intake forms completed before admission, patients are asked to share their food preferences, dietary restrictions, and food intolerances. Dr. Edgar Payán considers nutrition an important part of patient care and works with Gael, the hospital's nutritionist, and the kitchen staff to provide meals suited to each patient's individual needs.
Dr. Payán recommends a diet that excludes beef, pork, dairy, and gluten, with an emphasis on organic, non-GMO foods. At the same time, he recognizes that enjoying meals and feeling comfortable with food choices are important to patients during their hospital stay. Whenever possible, the kitchen team is happy to accommodate individual preferences while considering each patient's nutritional needs and medical recommendations.
Meals are freshly prepared in the hospital kitchen and delivered to each patient's private suite. Selections may include fresh salads, chicken, fish, vegetable soups, and fresh fruit, thoughtfully prepared according to individual dietary needs.
Daily Life During Your Hospital Stay
A 28-day stay at CMN Hospital also includes personal time between medical appointments and treatments. Patients can enjoy familiar interests, connect with loved ones, spend time in their private suites, and establish a comfortable rhythm to their days.
The hospital provides a recreation room with art supplies, yoga mats, and a stationary bicycle. These offer opportunities for recreation, personal interests, and activity suited to each patient's comfort and physical condition.
Hospital staff can also accompany patients on daytime outings. These may include enjoying a meal outside the hospital, shopping for personal necessities, attending church, or spending time outdoors. Outings can be coordinated with treatment schedules when arranged in advance.
Every patient brings their own interests, preferences, and daily routines. CMN Hospital welcomes these personal touches as part of helping patients feel comfortable and at home throughout their stay.
