Temporary Changes for Hospital Visitors

Date: 02/14/2019

During flu season, we are temporarily adjusting our visitor policy to proactively protect our patients, visitors, and staff. Changes include:

• Limiting visitors to two per patient at a time anywhere in the hospital.
• Establishing a minimum visitor age of 12 years old.

All visitors are being asked to:

• Wear a mask if you are experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms or if you have been exposed to someone who is exhibiting flu-like symptoms.
• Use hand sanitizer or wash with soap and water when entering the building, during your visit, and when leaving the facility.
• Use proper cough etiquette by covering your mouth with a tissue or the crook of an arm and immediately performing hand hygiene.
• Encourage family and friends who are not well to stay home.

Thank you for your help as we work together to prevent the spread of the flu.
