1. Please be considerate by keeping your visit short – 15 to 30 minutes.

2. Limit the number of visitors in the room to two at a time. Please remember to keep your voices down.

3. Control the volume on radios and TVs.

4. Please do no sit or place coats, purses, or other articles on the patient’s bed or on an empty bed in a semi-private room.

5. To avoid spreading germs, we ask that you not use the patient’s toilet facilities, or eat and drink from the patient’s tray.

6. If you are sick or know you’ve been exposed to a communicable disease, please delay your visit until you’re well again.

7. Some patients are on restricted diets, so be sure to check with the nurse or physician before bringing any food or treats when you visit.

8. Designate a family spokesperson to pass along updates to the patient’s family and friends. Our staff is very happy to talk with family, however remember every minute the staff spends assisting a visitor is time taken away from a patient.
