Safety of Your Children |
 |
For the safety of your children, Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center is restricting visitation in the hospital by anyone age 12 and under until further notice.
Taking care of the health of children is embedded in our mission. It is our shared responsibility with parents to safeguard the well being of their children. Based on the advice of our infectious disease physicians and in concurrence with the many hospitals who have now adopted this policy, the medical center will restrict children from visiting patients to avoid exposing this population who are very susceptible to Influenza, seasonal and H1N1.
While it may be an inconvenience, it is with the intentions of protecting your children that we have instituted this reaction. Thank you for helping us keep your children from undue harm.
NOTE: We will continue to offer our Sibling preparation class however we will not be able to conduct a tour of the Family Birthing Suites as a part of the class.
