In order to provide optimal care for all patients, Marian staff members must ensure a quiet, healthy, and secure health care environment. The following patient guest guidelines have been designed for the visitor's needs as well as for the patient's comfort and rest; your cooperation is appreciated.

Visiting Hours And Guidelines:

  • General Visiting Hours: 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Nursing staff may customize an individual patient’s visiting hours based on the patient’s needs. Additional guidelines apply to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and the Critical Care Unit (CCU).
  • Two guests in addition to the designated Care Partner may visit at one time. Additional guests are asked to wait in the guest waiting area on the floor you are visiting. Guests may take turns to provide visitation for all.
  • Special visiting hours apply to specific units, including CCU, Labor & Delivery and NICU; please ask nursing staff or representatives at the Information Desk.
  • Immediate family members of pre-procedure or pre-surgery patients may visit as early as they wish on the morning of surgery. Family/Guests may be asked to wait in the waiting area while the medical staff provides care to the patient.
  • To allow for a healing and restful environment, please keep noise to a minimum.
  • Waiting areas are for the use of multiple families; please be respectful of others while using these spaces.
  • For the safety of patients, please delay visiting if you have an infectious disease, such as a cold or flu.
