Visitors permitted at Niagara Health hospitals
- With lower COVID-19 transmission rates in the community, Niagara Health is allowing visitors in their inpatient units starting today.
- Inpatient visitation will be allowed daily from 11am to 8pm and inpatients can only have one person at their bedside at a time.
- Essential Care Partners (ECPs) can be present 24/7 but need to ensure only one person is with the patient at a time.
- Niagara Health will also be expanding the guidelines for a Support Person to accompany select patients, such as those 80 years of age and older, in the emergency departments and urgent care centres.
