Flexibility for Visitors, Premium Service for Patients

At the same time, it is important to recognize that our accommodation of visitors must be balanced with quality healthcare services. We appreciate your continued cooperation as we strive to serve our patients with the utmost care and excellence.

Things to Keep in Mind When Planning Your Visit

When visiting a patient at Memorial:

Please visit the reception desk near the entrance of the hospital.
Let the attendant know which unit you will be visiting, and check to make sure that you are aware of all restrictions that might be associated with that unit.
From the hours of 7 pm to 5 am, please be advised that you will need to use the emergency entrance at the back of the Oak Park campus, as our regular entrances will be closed.
