Visitation Guidelines

For our patient’s well-being, we ask visitors to abide by the guidelines we have established at Trinity Mother Frances. Please respect all “No Visitors” and “Stop, Do Not Enter” signs. These are requested by the attending physician for the patient’s benefit.

Please use good judgment and avoid visiting the hospital if you think you may be unwell. Individuals should not visit if they exhibit any of the following:

• Signs & symptoms of the flu or flu-like illness:
  o Fever >100º with one (1) of the following:
    - Runny Nose
    - Cough
    - Sore throat
• Upper respiratory infection
• Nausea/Vomiting/Diarrhea
• Fever within the last 24 hours

Please do your part to reduce the spread of germs that you make you and others sick, whether you are at home or visiting someone in the hospital.
