Alice Hyde Visitor/ Welcoming Policy

EFFECTIVE DATE: 12/12/2022
Family members and loved are valued members of the health care team and play a key role in supporting the wellbeing of our patients. Many other members of the health care team, health care business and health care learning communities also require access to our facility to support the work we do for patients. Our Visitor Welcoming Policy, developed in accordance with New York State Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), supports visitation while reducing the risk of exposure to COVID for our patients, people and the community.

Inpatient visitation hours are 10 am - 7 pm, two visitors at a time.

*All designated support persons are required to follow infection prevention guidelines including remaining masked at all times, following PPE and hand hygiene expectations and maintaining social distancing.

General Notes:

  • Visitors must be free of Covid symptoms. In addition if tested positive for Covid, the individual must have completed a minimum 10 days of isolations. Persons who meet criteria for isolation/quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19 may not visit our facilities
  • Visitors must wear a surgical/procedural mask that covers their nose and mouth for the entire time they are in the building, including in the patient’s room.
