For the safety of our patients, staff and community at this time social visits remain restricted.
We are allowing patients to choose if they wish to have Care Partners present to provide physical and emotional support. Care Partners may purchase food from the cafeteria. Starbucks and Subway are accessible through MOB I and MOB II main entrances. For help wayfinding through the hospital, download our WMC Campus Guide mobile app.
Health screening and hand hygiene will occur upon entrance to Winchester Medical Center. Masks must be worn throughout all hospital public areas and when the health care team is in a patient’s room.
Patients may have one visitor. Upon inpatient admission, patients may choose if they would like their one visitor to become a Care Partner.
Patients may have one designated visitor wait in the South Tower lobby.
Patients may have one designated Care Partner permitted inside the hospital before and during procedure. Patient may choose to have a second Care Partner upon hospital admission.
Patients in non-COVID care units can designate two Care Partners if they wish. One Care Partner at a time is permitted in the hospital and will enter through the South Tower between 8am-8pm.
Two family or friend visitors may be at the patient’s bedside at a time. While there are no visiting hour restrictions for EOL visits, time will be managed within reason by the clinical team. If requested, clergy will be allowed to administer last rites or other religious end of life customs.
