Parents and guardians are not considered visitors, and are welcome to be with their child 24/7.
For the protection of our young patients, parents or legal guardians will be asked to provide a list of approved visitors to the bedside nurse. This information is available to staff members if parent is not present when a visitor arrives. Any visitor wishing to visit your child must be listed on the approved visitor list in order to be admitted to your child’s room.
We want your child to have visitors, but we also want to protect your child as much as possible from any outside germs. For that reason, children under age 14 years will need to have a good health screen before visiting, and will receive a Good Health Assessment Badge to show that this screening has taken place.
While adults do not need a Good Health Assessment, we ask that adults should not visit if they have a contagious illness – such as a cold, or if they have a fever.
