Visiting Hours
Visiting hours vary. We understand the importance of visitors to the healing process of our patients. If visiting hours are limited in certain units they will be posted.
Visitors should not come to the hospital if they are ill. They could spread their illness to other patients. Patients who have a disease spread by skin-to-skin contact may have their visits restricted. Please check with your nurse.
To reduce the risk of latex allergies, visitors are asked not to bring latex balloons as gifts. Latex balloons can be exchanged free of charge for mylar balloons in the hospital gift shop.
