Visiting Guidelines
In an effort to protect patients and prevent the spread of infection during the flu season, Dixie Regional has implemented a new hospital visitation policy. The policy states that visitors must be healthy and at least 15 years old. On the 400 East campus, each patient will be asked to designate two healthy family members or friends over age 15 to act as "designated visitors" who will be the only ones allowed to visit the patient during their stay. We appologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Well visitors only, please. Protect your loved one by staying home if you are sick or have recently been exposed to a contagious illness such as chicken pox, measles, mumps, pertussis (whooping cough), tuberculosis, or rubella. This helps patients avoid infections that could jeopardize their recovery.
General visiting hours. Hours are 4:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Check with your nurse for unit-specific guidelines.
Newborn Intensive Care Unit. Parents can visit at any time except 5:30 to 7 a.m. and 5:30 to 7 p.m. for nursing report and care preparation.
Intensive Care Unit. Immediate family members only are welcome to visit patients at any time, except 5:30 to 7 a.m. and 5:30 to 7 p.m. for nursing report and care preparation.
