Patients and Visitors
Things to Know When You Visit Us

Visiting hours are generally from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.  Times may vary in specific departments.  Children of any age may visit while under the supervision of parent or other adult.  Visitors may be asked to leave patient rooms during treatments, diagnostic tests or physician visits.  To facilitate smooth communications, you may be asked to appoint a family spokesperson to serve as the link between the Patient Care Team and family members/friends.  This helps protect patient privacy.

Don't give the patient any medications, food or drink (even water) unless you ask the nurse.  Please don't share the patient's meal or bring food into the patient's room.  Take any valuables (such as jewelry) home for safekeeping.

You can help make your loved one more comfortable.  Talk with the nurse to find out what you can do.  Your loved one may need rest most of all.  Visitors with infections or communicable illnesses should refrain from visiting patients.  Don't forget to take care of yourself, too.

Our commitment is to provide excellent medical treatment, comfortable rooms, privacy, security, and an environment that is free of infection and conducive to quality patient care.
