Visiting Guidelines
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. If you have a cough please wear a mask. This helps patients avoid infections that could jeopardize their recovery.
Everyone should wash their hands frequently with soap and water or use hand sanitizer. Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your sleeve.
