Visiting Guidelines and Hours
University Hospital precautionary measure
for the safety of our patients and staff.
Due to the widespread outbreak of H1N1 in our community, and as a precaution to protect patients and staff from spread of
the flu, Upstate University Hospital has instituted these restrictions:
- Visiting hours will be limited to noon-8 p.m.
- Only two visitors at a time will be allowed to visit with each patient
- Children under 17 will not be permitted to visit with patients
If you have flu-like symptoms — cough, fever, sore throat and runny nose — please do not visit patients at this time.
Please respect a patient's need for privacy and rest.
Visitor Sign-In Policy
University Hospital and Golisano Children's Hospital require all visitors to present identification, preferably a photo ID, such as a driver's license, as they enter the hospital. Family members and visitors will then receive an ID badge with their name and visit location.
This policy underscores Upstate's commitment to ensuring the safety of its patients, staff and visitors.
