RHI Visitor Restrictions

Visitor Guidelines and Responsibilities

*Effective Wednesday, December 18th, 2024*

Thank you for assisting RHI in keeping you and our patients safe. This is our top priority!  During your visit to our facility, please be mindful of your surroundings and follow recommended practices.  If at any time RHI finds we are unable to maintain safe practices and social distancing during visitation, we reserve the right to implement further restrictive measures. 

Due to a rise in reported cases of flu and other respiratory viruses, RHI is limiting visitors to prevent spreading and protect the patients and team members.

The following restrictions will remain in effect until viral illness rates decline:
