We are free to listen to on beds fitted with a Hospedia screen, all that is required is for you to register your Hospedia set.

The picture on the right shows the three steps you will need to complete to register your set. On the first screen to appear, enter your title, eg Mr, Mrs etc then press continue. Unfortunately there is no option for Sir, Lord or Lady.
On the screen that follows, use the on-screen keyboard to enter the initial of your first name, the screen will then jump automatically to the next box where you can again use the on-screen keyboard to enter your surname, then press the continue button.
Finally, enter your date of birth and press continue. Your screen will now be registered for you to listen to Epsom Hospital Radio free of charge.
From the main menu, press the button that says "Listen to Radio"
Epsom Hospital Radio is on Channel 1, titled "Hospital Radio" this should be the first radio station to come up once you've pressed the "Listen to Radio" button as detailed in the previous step. If it says you are listening to a different radio station, use the channel up/down buttons, either on the screen in the bottom right, or one of the physical buttons just below till you come to channel 1.
