Visitor Information

Patients have the right to designate the visitors they wish to receive during their hospitalization. Visitation will not be restricted or denied on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability.

Patients may withdraw or deny visitation consent at any time.

Patients may designate a support person to exercise visitation rights on their behalf if they are unable to do so.

A designated support person may exercise visitation rights but does not have medical decision-making authority unless separately granted.

To protect patients and staff:

• Visitors must be free from fever or visible signs of illness
• Visitors must not have recent exposure to communicable disease
• Visitors must follow isolation precautions when applicable
• The number of visitors at the bedside may be limited for safety and space considerations

During emergency situations, visitors may be asked to step out temporarily.

Certain departments may have additional visitation guidelines, including:

• Behavioral health
• Emergency department
• Pediatric ICU
• Neonatal units
• Labor and delivery

Please check with unit staff for department-specific guidance.

HH Health maintains a strict tobacco-free policy across all facilities and properties. Smoking, vaping and the use of any tobacco or nicotine products — including cigarettes, cigars, pipes, e-cigarettes, vaping devices and smokeless tobacco — are not permitted inside buildings, in outdoor areas such as entrances and parking lots, in hospital-owned vehicles or at any HH Health location. This policy applies to everyone. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe, healthy and healing environment for everyone.

Supporting Patients Who Use Tobacco

HH Health recognizes that quitting tobacco can be challenging. Patients who use tobacco products are encouraged to speak with their care team about available resources and support options during their hospital stay.
