Short answer yes, just be nice about it.  Between new pilots who cant get briefed on every single helipad within 2 hours of home and float pilots who get tossed into the fray with maybe an hour or two briefing, mistakes will be made.  We have a rooftop pad in our area that was designed to take a VH3, but it fits 2 normal sized aircraft just fine. The paint job is merely two yellow center lines that if you didnt know you would just land in the middle.  As the pilot you do try your best to learn about where you are going, thats when you can use dispatch to call ahead and see if there is anything odd about where you are going.  The local HAA program that serves the hospital you are going to know will know the local deals.
