Visiting hours
Main Line Health patients are permitted to have visitors 24 hours a day, seven days a week, as long as it is not disruptive to their healing. Visitation will be individualized to meet the patient’s and family’s needs. Main Line Health staff members will support and facilitate this to the best of their ability whenever possible. Main Line Health may need to limit or restrict visitors to better care for the patient or other patients and to protect their health, privacy and safety. The patient has the right to be made aware of any clinical limitations or restrictions.
Visitors are limited in the OB/NICU units at all hospitals per the following guidelines: Family and friends above age 12 may visit from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm. Dads/partners may visit 24 hours a day and stay overnight. Grandparents may visit 8:00 am to 8:00 pm. Siblings (brothers and sisters of the new baby) may visit 11:00 am to 8:00 pm and must be supervised by an adult (other than the mom) at all times. A child who has not had chickenpox or the chickenpox vaccine may not visit. The chickenpox vaccine is usually given at 12 to 15 months of age. Any visitors, including siblings, who are not feeling well (e.g., cold, flu, fever) should not visit.
