Visitors Restricted at all HMH Hospitals

What you need to know

Effective Friday, March 13, 2020, Hackensack Meridian Health (HMH) will restrict visitors from all HMH hospitals.

Visitation exceptions will be made in certain situations, including:

• Hospice
• Pediatric care
• Ambulatory Care/Same day surgery (one visitor)
• Maternity/Labor and delivery (one visitor)

Once a visitor is approved, they will undergo a temperature screening.  They will also need to provide their contact information in the event that tracing becomes necessary.  Phone and video calls to patients are welcome and encouraged.

As a precautionary measure and to keep patients and team members safe, HMH is also asking its team members to self-monitor their temperature before they report to work. 

These visitor restrictions will be reevaluated in 30 days.
