Visiting guidelines

• The ideal visiting time for ICU patients is 15 to 30 minutes. Visiting time may be shortened or extended as the patient's condition changes.
• Please limit visitors to two or three at a time.
• Visitors may be asked to leave the patient's room, depending on the patient's need or at the request of the staff or physician.
• If the curtain is pulled or the door closed, please check with the nurse before entering.
• Please be courteous and respectful of other patient's privacy as you go to and from your family member's room.

*There is no visiting during the following times*

7 - 7:30 a.m.
10 - 10:30 a.m.
3 - 3:30 p.m.
7 - 7:30 p.m

During this time we conduct RN shift-to-shift report and in order to protect patient confidentiality we ask all ICU visitors and family to step out of the ICU during these times.

Pet visitation

It may be possible for your loved one's pet to visit. Please ask a staff member for more information.
