Changes to Hospital Visitors

Due to the high volume of respiratory issues, effective Tuesday, March 17th, Parkview Medical Center patients are allowed only one visitor in a 24-hour period.  In addition, the hospital will continue to prohibit visitors into the hospital under the age of 18.  If visitors present symptoms of cold or flu, they will not be allowed in the hospital, regardless of age. 

“We understand this might not be ideal for families and friends visiting loved ones but this measure of precaution is to keep everyone safe.  The health and safety of our patients, their families and the Parkview team is our top priority,” stated Leslie Barnes, President and CEO. 

Parkview Medical Center continues to stay diligent and prepared during the recent COVID-19 events.
