Due to COVID-19, our visitor policy has changed. Please review the visitor policy for more information.

Visitor and guest guidelines

Labor and delivery observation

At this stage, one guest can be with you until you are moved to a labor room or discharged.

Labor and delivery

Two people may be with you in your labor and delivery room, as well as in recovery. A sibling is welcome to visit and they would count as one of the two people who can be in your room at any given time. Visitors are welcome to rotate. During an operating room delivery (e.g., C-Section) space only allows for one support person to be with you.

We recommend all visitors be in good health and, other than siblings, visitors must be at least 14 years old. Your baby will be rooming with you during your stay so consider limiting visitors to allow family bonding time and to assure adequate sleep.

After delivery on maternity, visiting hours are 8am to 10pm. One support person can spend the night, no children. 

Services

Along with the third-floor waiting area outside Labor and Delivery, there are other useful services for your family and friends available in the rotunda in the first-floor main lobby, including a gift shop, Healthy Living Store, 24-hour pharmacy, and ATM.
