Visiting a Patient
Visiting your loved one in the hospital can have a positive impact on their healing process. We welcome families, friends, caregivers and other visitors to stay as often as the patient wishes.
To put the patient’s health and well-being first, the following guidelines should be followed when planning a visit:
- Visitors should enter the building through the North Emergency Department entrance located on 6th Street.
- Quiet hours are observed beginning at 8 p.m. daily. At this time, lights may be dimmed, and visitors are asked to please be respectful and lower all noise levels.
- Generally, two visitors are allowed at a time.
- Patients or Mission Partners may restrict visitation as they see fit.
- Specific care areas may have additional guidelines.
In the spirit of Christ and the example of Francis of Assisi, the Mission of OSF HealthCare is to serve persons with the greatest care and love in a community that celebrates the Gift of Life.
