Our mission is simple: build a healthier community. It’s what we’ve been doing for over 130 years, and today we’re doing it in more ways than ever before.

Visitors

Updated June 5, 2024

We realize that spending time with your loved one is important to the healing process. As a health care organization, the health and safety of our patients, physicians, staff and visitors are our top priority.

We have a visitation check-in system at our main lobbies, Emergency Department, the Wingate building and Fairmount entrance.

Hospital Main Lobby Hours

6 a.m. – 10 p.m., 7 days a week

To help ensure a smooth and quick check-in process:

  • Please have your driver’s license with you. If you do not have a driver’s license available, you will be required to provide your first name, last name and date of birth, with another form of identification.
  • Your photo will be taken and an expiring badge will be printed for you. Your photo will not be shared outside our system.
  • If you have a cough, cold or any symptoms of flu, COVID-19 or any infectious disease, please do not visit.
  • For the safety of patients and staff, please stay in the patient’s room while visiting.
  • See visiting information by area for detailed visitor guidelines.

Nursing leadership may restrict visitation in certain circumstances.

Partnering with our health care team supports an excellent patient experience and ensures safe delivery of care. Please read our partnership agreement to see how you plan and important role in the care of your loved one.

Masking Recommended

  • In all patient care locations – including inside patient rooms and in waiting rooms, well-fitted masks are strongly recommended but not required for patients and visitors.

Masks are available at lobby desks and nursing stations. Thank you for supporting a safe place for care.

Main Lobby Hours

6 a.m. – 10 p.m., 7 days a week

Staying connected outside of visiting hours, or when you are unable to visit: 

  • If your hospitalized loved one can communicate on their own, we ask that you please contact them directly. 
  • If you would like to speak with the care team, we ask that families of hospitalized patients please designate only ONE family member to call the hospital. This helps limit the number of phone calls and keeps our focus on providing direct patient care. 
  • We ask that the designated family member kindly refrains from calling during shift change (6:30 a.m. – 8 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.), as this is when care teams are sharing important patient information with the incoming shift.

A family member or friend’s time in the hospital can be difficult for everyone. We provide comfortable and restful spaces and services for visitors. Our seasonally updated gift shop is a perfect place to relax while browsing for a gift for a loved one.

Our Huntington Collection is a unique resale shop, with all funds directly supporting our Senior Care Network. We encourage visitors to enjoy an afternoon browsing the items.
