Current Visitor Guidelines
On Monday, February 15 we will welcome visitors back into the hospital. Visitation is from 2 p.m. - 8 p.m.
- When visiting a patient Monday - Friday, please enter through the front of the hospital by 7 p.m.. After 7 p.m., the front is no longer staffed and the doors are locked. You may stay with the patient until 8 p.m., at which time visitation is closed for the day.
