As part of a statewide effort to limit the spread of COVID-19, Hamilton will implement a No Visitors Policy beginning Wednesday, March 18.

 

Hamilton Medical Center has received confirmation of a positive test today for COVID-19, as has occurred at many hospitals in the surrounding counties. In similar response as is being done at other hospitals, we will only allow visitors in certain extraordinary circumstances. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time and encourage family and friends to utilize alternative forms of communication with their loved ones.

 

If you feel that you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 or have been exposed, please contact your primary care provider.

 

How can you help keep yourself healthy?

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands
• Stay at home when sick
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
