Visiting Hours and Guidelines

Sturdy Memorial Hospital Visitors

Visiting hours are 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. (Weber Maternity Hours visiting hours are 4 – 8 p.m.)

Visitors are limited to two (2) adult visitors at a time.   Most hospital units allow a minor (visitor under age 18) to accompany an adult.

(For the Maternity unit, only siblings of the newborn may visit. Siblings under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.)

To help protect our patients, please postpone your visit if you have had a fever of 100°F or higher or have experienced symptoms, such as a cough, sore throat, congestion, shortness of breath, chills, body aches, headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or a new loss of taste or smell within the past seven days.

Weber Maternity Visitors

Visiting hours for the Weber Maternity Unit are 4 – 8 p.m.

Adults may visit the maternity unit if they have not had a fever of 100°F or higher or recent symptoms, such as a cough, sore throat, congestion, shortness of breath, chills, body aches, headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or a new loss of taste or smell within the past seven days.

Only siblings of the newborn may visit. Siblings under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. To help protect our babies, we ask that siblings postpone their visit if they have had a fever of 100°F or higher or recent symptoms, such as a cough, sore throat, congestion, shortness of breath, chills, body aches, headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or a new loss of taste or smell within the past seven days.

IF YOU ARE WELL ENOUGH TO VISIT, PLEASE:

Wash your hands with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before and after your visit, and each time you enter or leave a patient’s room.
Check in at the nurse station before entering the patient’s room.

Exceptions:

Any exceptions to this policy must be approved by the appropriate hospital leadership.

Flower & Balloon Policy

All floral arrangements must be delivered to patients in a container or vase, since we do not have containers available at the hospital. Due to space restrictions in patient rooms, floral arrangements may not exceed 18″ in height or width. Likewise, fruit baskets should not exceed 12″ in size. Live potted plants or fresh-cut evergreen trees are not permitted in the hospital.

Loose balloons, balloon bouquets, and latex balloons are not permitted in patient rooms or in the hospital. However, one single mylar balloon (up to 18″ in diameter) is permitted, as long as it is tied to an anchor, such as a weight, candy jar, or stuffed animal.

No Smoking, Vaping, or Using Nicotine, Tobacco, or Cannabis Products

Sturdy Memorial Hospital is committed to providing a healthy environment for our patients, visitors, and staff. Smoking, vaping, or using nicotine, tobacco, or cannabis products is prohibited anywhere on hospital property, including all buildings, grounds, and parking lots.
