Patients & Visitors

The goal of our visitors policy is to maintain a safe and comfortable environment for our patients to regain health. So that patients can get the rest they need, the hospital requests that patients have no more than two visitors at a time. Patients in the Intensive Care Unit may have only one visitor at a time. Children under 12 years of age are not allowed to visit.
