• Allowing two caregivers with each patient. No other family or visitors are allowed.
• Effective April 1, patients receiving hospital laboratory and phlebotomy services may be accompanied by two visitors.
• Lab treatment rooms and sleep lab studies will continue to allow one visitor
• Masks are recommended.
• Masks are required for:
• Anyone over the age of 2 in our emergency departments, urgent care locations and some clinic locations due to a higher possibility of spreading illnesses in these areas.
• A patient who is at high risk for infections.*
• A guardian or visitor of a patient who is at high risk for infection.*
• Our clinical team members and employees during direct patient care in our hospitals and clinics.
• Please ensure that a well caregiver is bringing the child in for services. If not possible, please notify the clinical team before your arrival for options.
