Visitor Guidelines at CMH

A network of support is important during a hospitalization. CMH encourages visitors to support their loved one in an appropriate and uplifting way.  

Visitors including a spouse, partner, or other family member or friend are welcome with the patient’s consent. Patients have the right to withdraw or deny consent at any time.  

When am I allowed to visit?

Visiting hours are flexible to allow for the patient to experience support and socialization throughout the length of their stay. Suggested visiting hours are 10 AM-8:30 PM daily. However, the patient and their care team may expand or limit visitors depending on individual need.  

Are children allowed to visit?

Yes, children are allowed to visit and must be accompanied by an adult visitor.  

Am I allowed to visit if I’m sick?

For the safety of all patients at CMH, visitors who are currently sick are not allowed to visit. This includes minor illnesses like the common cold.  

Where do I park at the hospital?

Visitors may park in the main hospital lot and enter through the main entrance (under the big blue awning). Parking is always free.  

Can I bring food or gifts to a patient?

Gifts and treats bring cheer. For the patient’s safety, please check with the nurse on duty to ensure that the patient does not have any dietary allergies or restrictions. Latex balloons are not allowed in the hospital. Flowers are fine, but please be considerate of people with allergies or sensitivity to odors.  

CMH’s Gift Shop is open weekdays 9:30 AM-3:30 PM. Learn more about the Gift Shop.

Is there a cafeteria?
