Hospital and Clinic Visitor Restrictions

What is the new visitation policy?

• The new policy further limits visitors to INTEGRIS facilities.
• No visitors will be allowed for adult patients.
• One adult visitor will be permitted for labor and delivery and pediatrics, for the entire length of the hospitalization.
• Exceptions may be made for Critically ill ICU (ECMO, Transplant, etc), Palliative Care, Hospice and Adult Patients requiring assistance from a guardian or caregiver, especially those who are unable to receive emotional support from virtual/FaceTime options.
• Waiting rooms and common areas have been closed temporarily as we need to limit visitors to INTEGRIS Health campuses.
• INTEGRIS Health is also asking individuals who may be sick themselves, including those experiencing symptoms such as fever, cough or sore throat, to not visit the hospital unless they are seeking medical treatment.
• No visitors under 18 will be allowed.
• No visitors will be allowed in isolation rooms.

Why is INTEGRIS Health Updating the Visitation Policy?

• The new restrictions on patient visitation at its hospitals are in place to protect patients, their families and all INTEGRIS Health caregivers.
• These temporary restrictions are being enforced out of an abundance of caution, and to mitigate the potential transmission of the COVID-19 illness or influenza.

Clinic Visitor Restrictions

To protect patients, their families and all INTEGRIS Health caregivers, INTEGRIS Health will temporarily be restricting the number of non-essential persons at each clinic. Each
patient needing assistance at their visit will be allowed one accompanying visitor per appointment.

These temporary restrictions are being enforced out of an abundance of caution, and to mitigate the potential transmission of the COVID-19 illness or influenza.

INTEGRIS Health is following guidelines and best practices issued by the Centers for Disease Control. This is a temporary inconvenience, but we have implemented this policy in the best interests of our patients, caregivers and the community. Thank you for your support and understanding.
