As the number of flu cases is increasing, Riverview Health is taking added precautions to protect patients, families, staff members and the community from unnecessary exposure to influenza.
Beginning today, Riverview Health is implementing these temporary visitation restrictions:
- No visitors with influenza-like illness, fever or cough.
- No visitors under the age of 16, unless special arrangements are made.
- No visitors except immediate family, partner or significant other.
As Riverview Health works to provide a safe environment for patients and staff, administrators apologize for any inconvenience this visitation restriction may cause. Riverview Health will continue to monitor conditions and remove the restrictions as soon as it is safe to do so.
