Visiting Hours and Policies

Visitors are important to our Patients healing and well being. Visiting hours are based on the needs of the patient, and visitors are encouraged to discuss any special visiting needs with the unit's head nurse. Whenever possible and medically appropriate, the nurse will coordinate special visiting arrangements to meet patient and family needs.

If you are unable to visit a patient personally, you may call the patient or send a card or gift.

Number of Visitors

While visitors are very welcome and important, it is important to keep the number to two  at a time.

Food and Beverages

Visitors may not bring food or beverages to patients without authorization from unit physicians or nurses.

Clergy

Members of the clergy are welcome to visit patients who are members of their particular religious group at any time at the discretion of the unit physicians or nurses.
