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.

Visitors will be asked to leave a patient’s room during patient care treatments to maintain patient privacy.

Number of Visitors

A patient may receive no more than two visitors at a time.

Food and Beverages

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

Children Under 15 Years of Age

Children under the age of 15 will be accompanied by an adult who will assume responsibility for their actions.  The visits are approved and scheduled.  Drop in visits may not be able to be accommodated on a unit.  The needs of neighboring patients will be respected.

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.

Exceptions

For the health and well-being of a patient, the attending physician may limit, restrict, or deny visitation. We apologize for any inconvenience when this occurs, and appreciate your understanding that it may be medically necessary.
