Emergency Department

• Visitation is dependent on the hospital’s ability to safely allow additional people in the Emergency Room. Hospital leadership monitors patient volume within the Emergency Department on an ongoing basis throughout the day and will determine when visitation is appropriate and safe. During high census times, the hospital reserves the right to suspend visitation.
• When visitation is permitted, one visitor over the age of 18, will be limited to 15-minute time increments (swapping is allowed). Visitors will only be allowed in certain areas within the Emergency Department, the Cardiac Area, Chest Pain Center, area 1X (the Critical Care Unit) and Pediatrics.
• Visitors must be checked in by the Patient Information Greeter. While in the hospital, visitors must always wear the appropriate “Visitor ID Pass”. Failure to do so will result in revocation of visiting privileges.
• All individuals must understand that patient visitation poses a risk of exposure to infectious diseases for the visitor as well as the patient. Currently, hospital grade face masks are required in all patient care areas.
• All visitors must remain at the patient’s bedside for the duration of the visit.
• In the adult Emergency Department visitation will be limited to one person at the bedside. In the Pediatric ED one parent or legal guardian must be present (unless noted otherwise by staff).
• Visitation exceptions may be granted by clinical leadership at their discretion.
• The Hospital reserves the right at any time to suspend visitation due to patient/staff safety.
