Visiting a Patient
Visits from relatives and friends can play an important part in your recovery; however, they can also be tiring. It is in your best interest that you get all of the rest that you can while in the hospital. If you feel uncomfortable asking people to limit their visits, you might ask a family member or friend to coordinate your visits for you. We do have some requests of our visitors:
- Visiting hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
- Try to keep visits brief and to only two people at any given time.
- Please have an adult accompany any children under 12 and do not leave them unattended.
- Wash your hands before and after your visit so you don't spread germs to the patient.
- If you have a cold, flu, or other contagious disease please wait until you are well for your visit.
- Please be respectful of other patients and keep noise to a minimum.
- If you want to bring food to a patient, please check with the nursing staff. Some diets are restricted.
