Wesley Healthcare Adjusting Visitor Policy Amid Rising COVID-19 Cases

Beginning at 1 p.m. on Monday, August 16th, Wesley Healthcare will once again be limiting visitors at its facilities amid the rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations.

One visitor per adult patient will be allowed at a time, both in the hospital and in the ER. Visitors must sign in upon entry so that hospital staff can track visitors for each patient.

Visiting hours will remain in effect from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily, and all patients, visitors and staff must wear a mask at all times. No visitors will be allowed in high risk areas and no children under the age of 12 will be allowed to visit.

Certain exceptions will remain in place, including:

  • No more than 2 visitors at one time, per patient, for the Neonatal ICU, all inpatient pediatric units, Labor and Delivery/Birth Care Suites and 5 Women’s Mom/Baby Unit
  • Labor and Delivery/Birth Care Suites and 5 Woman’s Mom/Baby Unit visitors are limited to birth partners and family members only
  • Certain exceptions may also be made for religious visitation, designated support people for patients with disabilities and end-of-life situations.
