We ask that guests exhibiting flu-like symptoms refrain from visiting until they have recovered to prevent the spread of germs. Visitors may bring gifts that do not cause allergic reactions to our patients.

Loved ones are called frequently for updates on the patient's condition and ongoing care. Social workers and case managers work closely with family members to assist in the discharge process.
