Hospital Updates Updated: 4/10/2020
Entrance Closures
To protect our patients, staff and community from COVID-19, we have began limiting access to our facility.
Closures
- Green, “Public Entrance,” doors are for patients and visitors only.
- Yellow, “Patient Only,” doors are for patients with scheduled appointments only.
- Red, “No Access,” doors are closed to everyone.
Visitor Restrictions
Patients checking in must tell staff and ask for a mask if they are experiencing cold or flu symptoms. We ask you to help keep our community healthy with these temporary visit restrictions:
| 1. | Visiting hours will be from 8 am — 8 pm. |
| 2. | Visitors with cold or flu symptoms should refrain from visiting patients in all units. |
| 3. | Patients may have no more that one visitor in a 24-hour period. |
| 4. | Anyone under 16 years of age is not allowed in the facility other than to seek care. |
Pet Visitation
Following the recommendation of Ivinson’s Infection Control Committee, pet visitation will be suspended at Ivinson effective April 10, 2020.
Although COVID-19 is not transmitted between pets and humans, a pet could carry COVID-19 on their fur or skin. COVID-19 can be spread through contact with touching an infected area and then touching your face.
These rules are in place for the protection of our patients, staff and providers. There are no exceptions.
