Flu Season Visitor Restrictions

Help us protect our patients! Visitors with any flu-like symptoms (fever, sore throat, runny nose, etc.) should refrain from visiting Labor and Delivery/Family Care patients as it poses a risk to hospitalized mothers and our youngest patients.

Additionally, to limit the spread of the respiratory viruses, we are asking that only two people visit a patient at a time.

Thank you for helping us promote patient safety!
