‼️ Updated Visitor Policy‼️
VISITOR’S POLICY CHANGE | As of June 8th, the hospital visitor policy changed from 1 essential visitor per patient to 1 visitor per patient. Over the last three months, the hospital has only allowed one essential visitor if a patient was underage, a fall risk, incapable of making health care decisions, or feeding themselves. Monday, we removed the essential restriction, allowing each patient to be accompanied by one visitor throughout all hospital departments. The only exceptions to this new policy are the ICU and the COVID-19 (located on the inpatient 3rd floor) unit. We will continue to restrict visitation, not allowing any visitors in either the ICU or COVID-19 Unit until further notice.
NO MASK, NO ENTRY │ All visitors and patients entering the hospital, are required to wear a mask and will be screened (including temperature checks) upon entry. No one will be allowed to enter the building without a mask.
