Visiting Guidelines
Join us in our efforts to care for your family member or friend through brief and pleasant visits. Please supervise small children closely, for their own safety and for the comfort of our patients.
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 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Check with your nurse for unit-specific guidelines.
Intensive Care Unit. Immediate family members over the age of 12 are welcome at any time around the clock, but may want to avoid the time between 7 to 8:30, both morning and evening, for nursing reports and care preparation.
Visiting after 9 p.m. Most outside doors are locked after 6:30 p.m. To visit after that time, enter through the main patient tower and check in with hospital security, or stop at the front desk in emergency.
