Does the hospital have WiFi? Would be cheaper than a dongle.

Looks a good deal for the Three dongle here with DATA and hopefully you can also pickup in a Three store:

There is this Three dongle with 20gb of data on a rolling contract which seems a good deal:

Does your family member have a smartphone? If so, if they are on a plan which includes tethering they can use their smartphone as a WiFi hotspot. Even if they aren't on a plan that includes tethering, you can get a PAYG plan from a network such as EE that include tethering.
