We welcome visitors to our hospitals. We understand that family and friends provide crucial support and comfort to patients. For the well-being of all our patients, we ask that you observe the following guidelines.
Inpatient visits
Two patient-approved adult primary caretakers/visitors are permitted at a time on all floors, stepdown units, and intensive care units during designated times based on these guidelines:
- General inpatient visitation hours are 8 am – 7:30 pm daily.
- All visitors must provide an acceptable form of ID (e.g., valid U.S. driver’s license or U.S. ID card; other state photo ID card issued by the State Division of Motor Vehicles or equivalent; government-issued passport or Green Card; U.S. military ID card).
- Two approved visitors are permitted for 60 minutes at time of admission and discharge if not within designated visiting hours.
- One overnight visitor is allowed.
- Visitors who are exhibiting respiratory symptoms – including, but not limited to, fever, cough, runny or stuffy nose, sore throat, and shortness of breath – must wear a mask.
Please note: Exceptions to visitation will be made based on patient condition and on a case-by-case basis by the department leader and/or House Supervisor. Exceptions include, but are not limited to, deaf/blind patients, low mental capacity, significant mobility limitations, critical conversations (goals of care), and end of life.
Other types of visits
Two visitors may accompany patients for all other types of visits – including to clinics, procedural areas, and the Emergency Department – in designated waiting areas or exam rooms as space allows.
Two visitors are allowed to assist with the inpatient admission process at Healthy Minds, and two visitors are allowed per patient by appointment only.
