Visiting Hours

Because the health and well-being of our patients is our primary concern, we know that your visit can be the best medicine. However, too many visitors can unintentionally tire those in our care. For this reason, we ask that visitors be limited to two at a time and that the following times be observed:

  • Most nursing units: 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
  • Critical Care: ICU, CCU, and NICU visitors are limited to immediate family. Visits are limited to 30 minutes at 5:30 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 1:30 p.m., 5:30 p.m., and 8:30 p.m. Children under 12 are not permitted. To download out ICU brochure, click here.
  • Pediatrics: Parents are welcome anytime. Healthy siblings and all other visitors may visit from 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
  • Birth Center: Family and friends may visit from 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. Siblings of the baby may visit if they are accompanied by a responsible adult. They must be healthy and not exposed to communicable diseases. Please note that Pediatrics and the Birth Center have restricted entrances.
  • Adult Psychiatric Services: Daily: 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
  • Geriactric Psychiatric Services: Daily: 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
