MENDOTA COMMUNITY HOSPITAL LIFTS

VISITING RESTRICTIONS

            As the number of H1N1 flu cases continues to drop, Mendota Community Hospital is lifting the restrictions on visitors 18 years of age and younger.  The hospital returns to its more liberal visiting hours which are limited only by the patient’s preference.

            MCH will continuously monitor flu conditions.  If the situation changes, the hospital will review all options  and put corresponding visiting guidelines into effect to protect the safety of patients, staff and visitors. 

MCH asks that all individuals visiting the hospital (patients) be in good health.  If someone is experiencing flu-like symptoms please refrain from visiting the hospital.  Flu symptoms may include the following:  fever, sore throat, headache, cough, body aches, or chills.  All visitors are also required to wash their hands with soap and water or to use the hand gels provided by the hospital upon entering and leaving the patient rooms.
