Suburban Hospital recognizes the importance of family and friends during an illness and each unit strives to provide flexible opportunities for visitors. General visiting hours are unrestricted, but may vary according to a patient’s specific condition, treatment or location within the hospital. (i.e., ICU, Behavioral Health). See the nursing staff for details. Children under the age of 12 may be permitted to visit patients through special arrangement with the nurse in charge of the patient’s care, and should be closely supervised. Please be considerate of other patients when visitors are present and limit amount and noise levels.
Visitors must be in good health and should wash their hands before visiting. Before entering the patient’s room, check for infection control/ isolation signs posted on the outside of the door. Check with the patient’s nurse to see if you need to wear a gown, gloves, or a mask while in the room. Please use public restrooms rather than the patient’s bathroom.
For the comfort of patients and visitors, lounges and waiting areas with tables, magazines, and televisions are conveniently located throughout the hospital.
