Visitation guidelines

Visitation may be adjusted based on facility, circumstance and current safety protocols.
While we are no longer restricting the number of visitors each day, our team may limit the number of visitors at a time in any area or patient room due to space, care concerns or to comply with safety protocols.

In most units of our hospitals, visiting hours end at 10 p.m. unless the visitor is spending the night.
Most patients are allowed one (1) overnight visitor as long as they agree to follow guidelines for overnight visitors.
Units with specific visitation guidelines are outlined below.

Visitors may switch out unless a patient has COVID-19 or is being tested for COVID-19.
