Visitor Policy
Visiting hours are 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
In some conditions, visiting may be restricted, especially when a caregiver feels it necessary for the patient’s condition or when illnesses like COVID-19 or flu levels are high.
NICU and Special Care Nursery Restrictions
Visitations are closed to all children 13 years old and younger. Siblings who are 14 through 17 years old with up-to-date shot records are permitted.
COVID-19 Considerations
What to expect as a visitor of a suspected or diagnosed COVID-19 patient:
- You must follow all visitor instructions.
- You must pass the facility’s entry screening process.
- Check-in at the nurses’ station on the unit and notify staff of arrival before entering the patient room.
- Before entering the patient room, you will be required to put on personal protective equipment (PPE) provided by the nursing team, which includes a gown, gloves, and isolation mask. A face shield or goggles should also be worn.
- When entering an isolation room or area, a member of the hospital care team will help you with PPE.
- You are allowed to bring food to the patient, but food items will not be able to be stored in the unit patient refrigerators.
- When exiting an isolation room or area, a member of the hospital care team will help you safely remove your PPE.
- At the end of the visit, you will leave the hospital directly.
