Visitors

We encourage the family and friends of our patients to come and visit them in the hospital because you are an important part of their recovery.

How do I get there?

The contact information for our hospitals is listed in the Find Locations directory.

Just type the name of the hospital you are visiting into the search engine to pull up the listing. Each listing includes the address, map, contact and parking information.

What are the visiting hours?

Visiting hours for our hospitals are listed in the hospital listing found in the Find Locations directory.

Stay home if you aren't feeling well

We want our patients to have every chance to get well. Do not visit the hospital if you are feeling unwell (for example, have a cold or flu) or have been near someone else who is ill.

It is also important to wash your hands or use available alcohol-based liquid/foam hand sanitizers before and after visiting a person in hospital.
