Beginning Friday, March 27 no visitors will be allowed in medical centers and hospitals with the following exceptions:
- For births, NICU and pediatrics, one pre-determined visitor will be allowed, per day
- For end of life care, visitors will be allowed at the discretion of the facility
- COVID-19 patients will be allowed one pre-determined visitor, per day. The visitor will need to be masked and self-quarantine for 14 days following the visit
Patients are not allowed to bring guests to clinic appointments with the following exceptions:
- Children may have one parent or guardian with them during their appointment
- Adults requiring assistance may have one guest with them during their appointment
If you have COVID-19 symptoms, please call your regular health care provider — do not come in person to the clinic in order to protect staff and other patients. As a reminder, those symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath.
Earlier this week Avera Health close its hospitals to visitors.
