Patient
Safety
In the interest of safety for our patients,
anyone who has symptoms of colds, e.g., runny nose and fever or
sneezing & coughing, should not visit hospitalized patients. If
you do wish to visit with a respiratory illness then you are
requested to discuss with the caregiver what you should do to
reduce the risk to the hospitalized patient, e.g., hand hygiene and
wearing a mask.
Flowers
Flowers may be brought in by visitors,
delivered to the hospital, or delivered by the hospital's gift shop
to all patient care areas except the intensive care units. When
bringing fresh-cut flowers, please bring a vase or container.
