Updated Visitor Restrictions

Effective November 13, 2020 at 3:00pm: Due to a surge in confirmed COVID-19 cases in our community, CMH is restricting visitors until further notice, with some exceptions. We will continue to allow (one) parent or guardian of pediatric patients, caretakers of dependent adult patients and one visitor per OB patient in labor to enter CMH facilities. These visitors must be the same visitor for the length of the patients stay. Surgery will continue not to allow any visitors. Support person should wait in their car until surgery is finished. Patients in a clinic or services setting must follow the following guidelines: One visitor with pediatric, elderly or special needs patients. Radiology may have one visitor for OB ultrasounds.

 

Other exceptions may be approved by CMH leadership on a case by case basis such as end-of-life situations. 

We are sympathetic to our patients who are impacted by this visitor policy, however, it is our responsibility to do all we can to keep our patients, staff and the community as safe and healthy as possible during this pandemic. 

 

Thank you for your understanding, and for your continued diligence in masking, social distancing and hand hygiene.
