To keep newborns and expectant mothers safe from the virus visiting procedures are a little different. For now only parents and grandparents will be allowed in the Maternity and NICU Departments.

The hospital is also handing out masks to anyone with flu symptoms. Masks are available at several stations in the hospital.
