Vendor Kiosk Procedures 



Purpose Grand River Hospital Foundation (GRHF) receives requests from businesses and organizations to sell products and services on the premises. A vendor kiosk procedure has been created to streamline these requests and to have all requests pre-approved and pre-screened by GRHF to ensure that all products and services are appropriate for sale at Grand River Hospital. Procedure General Information Interested vendors are required to complete the Vendor Kiosk Application and Waiver Form for the appropriate year, available by emailing [email protected]



Upon review and approval of application and payment arrangements, vendors will be added to the sales schedule, dependent upon availability.



A schedule of vendors will be posted on the corporate intranet (LotusLink-viewable by Grand River Hospital staff). We will not put up flyers or signs in the building or send out mass emails to staff.



GRHF reserves the right to withhold permission from any vendor or discontinue a vendor’s sale immediately if there is any violation of any law, regulation or this policy.



Vendors must wear a vendor identification badge (available at Foundation reception).



GRHF reserves the right to cancel any scheduled kiosk vendors for reasons impacting Grand River Hospital’s operations, including, but not limited to, an infectious outbreak, power failure or other unforeseen circumstances.

Vendors must not hang any items from the ceiling or walls. At the end of the day, the space must be left in the same condition as it was found in the morning.

Vendors need to be respectful of this and give patients, porters, nurses, etc. the space needed. This needs to be done as quickly as possible.



Vendors should respect the hospital and its staff at all times. Vendors are expected to follow a professional code of standards, which promotes respectful interaction and communication. Grand River Hospital and Grand River Hospital Foundation will not tolerate unprofessional behavior.

Vendors need to be sure that they, as well as their staff, are familiar with the Policies and Procedures. If the above Procedures are not followed, all future bookings with the vendor will be cancelled and could result in the vendor being asked to leave immediately with no refund for rental fees issued. We appreciate your interest in the Grand River Hospital Foundation Vendor Kiosk Program and look forward to working cooperatively with you.
