Infection Control

For patient safety, it is important that all visitors adhere to hospital visiting and isolation practices:
  • Visitors with signs of a communicable disease or infection (including colds and flu) should not visit patients who are hospitalized.
  • Wash your hands when entering and leaving a patient's room — hand washing is the most important means of preventing the spread of infection.
  • Refrain from sitting on the patient's bed, using the patients' bathroom and handling the patient's personal belongings.
  • Only adult family members will be permitted to visit if a patient who has a contagious disease and special isolation precautions will be initiated.
