General Visitor Information
We believe in patient- and family-centered care and fully understand that patients benefit from family and friends visiting them in the hospital. To help protect everyone during the COVID-19 outbreak we are managing our visitor policies in accordance with Ohio’s Public Health Advisory System.
This is a challenging time and it can be hard not to have visitors. If you are a patient, we suggest you bring a smartphone or laptop to help communicate with the important people in your life. If you do not have access to a smartphone or laptop, tell us so we can try to help.
