Patients & Visitors
Open Visitation Effective May 17, 2021 During Inpatient Visitor Hours 8 a.m. - 7 p.m.
Full vaccination for visitors is always preferred, when possible.
Visitors should be screened and restricted from visiting, regardless of their vaccination status, if they have: current SARS-CoV-2 infection; symptoms of COVID-19; or prolonged close contact (within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period) with someone with SARS-CoV-2 infection in the prior 14 days or have otherwise met criteria for quarantine.
Visitors, regardless of their vaccination status, should wear a well-fitting cloth mask, facemask, or respirator (N95 or a respirator approved under standards used in other countries that are similar to NIOSH-approved N95 filtering face piece respirators) for source control.
Hand hygiene should be performed by the patient/resident and the visitors before and after contact.
Facilities might need to limit the total number of visitors in the facility at one time in order to maintain recommended infection control precautions. Facilities might also need to limit the number of visitors per patient/resident at one time to maintain any required physical distancing.
Per CDC guidelines, Isolation patients will be allowed 1 visitor who is acting as a care partner.
To help protect our patients, providers, employees, and community, these general patient visitation guidelines are in effect per CDC guidelines. (Updated April 27, 2021)
