All persons entering under an exception remain subject to appropriate infection control protocols.
Information for our visitors
This information is designed to answer some of the most frequently asked questions of our visitors.
General guidelines
- Visitors with colds or experiencing flu-like symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat), or with any contagious disease should not visit hospitalized patients.
- Only two visitors are allowed in the room at one time.
- Visitors should maintain a quiet environment and avoid unnecessary noise.

Visiting hours
Our general visiting hours are 9:00am until 9:00pm. Our Specialty Units have visiting hours as follows:
The Women's Pavilion
Family and friends visitation is set by the patient's attending physician or nurse/midwife. Siblings under 12 may visit if accompanied by an adult family member.
Acute rehab unit:
Monday - Friday: 5:00–9:00pm
Weekends: 11:00am–9:00pm
Please check with the nursing staff regarding patient's therapy schedule. Please notify the nursing staff when someone will be spending the night. Rolling cots are available for family members who stay overnight.
Intensive care
Because our ICU patients require a much higher level of care, policies differ from other areas of the hospital. Occasionally, our nurses may have to ask visitors to step out during regular visiting hours so we may provide the highest level of care to our patient. While we believe family and friends are essential to the healing process, please remember that caring for our patient is our top priority.
ICU visiting hours
- 24/7 open visitation
- Restricted to two (2) people at a time
- Must be at least 13 years of age.

Visitor parking is located in front of the hospital, to the right of the East Pavilion, and in the parking lot beside the Emergency Department entrance. Please don't leave valuables in your car unattended and be sure to lock up when you leave the automobile.
