From what I've seen I think you will be fine bringing your spouse with you, but I will add that different departments have different rules and if you want to avoid the chance of them having to wait outside them you should ring and ask. The contact number will be on your appointment letter.
Where is the blood test department
C level, towards south academic block. Coming from main entrance, turn right at the m&s cafe, then after the lifts turn left up the corridor. It will be on your left and there's a sign on the ceiling
Can I call a patient's room?
1) most patients are in bays of 4 or 6 beds and not in individual rooms.
2) most patients will not have a landline phone that can be dialled into.
3) Switchboard would not have access to which patient is in which bed.
Most of the time people still have a mobile phone with them but otherwise the wards will usually have a cordless phone they can take to the bedside.
