After you have logged in, you will arrive at the homepage. You can view your latest vital observations such as blood pressure, the current date, your expected discharge date if one has been decided by your clinical team. You will also see an overview of your medications and the main reasons for your inpatient hospital stay.

You are eligible to access MyGOSH Bedside if you or your family member has a MyGOSH account or if you are 16 years old and older and have your contact details recorded in your medical record.
If you don’t have a MyGOSH account, don’t worry you may still access MyGOSH Bedside on your hospital TV.
If you need help accessing MyGOSH Bedside, please ask a member of staff.
MyGOSH Bedside is specific to your hospital stay. MyChart and MyChart bedside are two separate apps. MyGOSH Bedside is available in your MyChart Bedside app on your hospital TV. It is also available in your MyChart app in a menu called ‘your hospital stay’ when you log into your MyGOSH account. This menu is only available when you are admitted to hospital as an inpatient.
Once you are discharged you will return to the standard MyGOSH view.
For more information, please log into your MyGOSH account via the MyChart app and review ‘MyGOSH Bedside’ education topic to find out more.
Any information about your hospital stay will be safely stored inside your electronic health record when you leave hospital.
Once you have logged in you will be asked to set a personal PIN.
Your MyGOSH Bedside app screen will go to sleep after 10 minutes of inactivity. You will then need to re-enter your PIN again.
You can enter the wrong PIN up to five times before you will need to ask a staff member to reset it.
Using a PIN helps keep your medical information safe.
