Visitor Restrictions

CaroMont Health supports open visitation in all facilities. However, for the safety and well-being of our patients, visitors and employees, visitation may be limited or restricted when it is clinically necessary. The following visitor restrictions and screening requirements are in place for all CaroMont Health facilities.

Masking Requirements for all CaroMont Health Facilities:

Masks are optional for patients, visitors and employees in CaroMont Health facilities. Patients may request that CaroMont Health care teams wear masks during any care encounter.

All visitors must:

  • Not have symptoms of COVID-19, flu or other respiratory illness, nor have tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 10 days or have a pending COVID-19 test.
  • Comply with all guidance related to infection control processes, follow directions from staff and remain in designated areas at all times.

Adult patients requiring isolation for COVID-19:

  • Adult patients with COVID-19 requiring isolation may have one (1) visitor at a time.

Patients with the following conditions may be allowed additional visitors, as determined by the treating physician and facility leadership: end-of-life circumstances, certain communication barriers and caregiver/decision-making. 

CaroMont Medical Group - Physician Offices and Urgent Care Centers and Outpatient Departments

To help ensure adequate space in reception areas and exam rooms, patients are asked to limit visitors to only necessary caregivers and immediate family members.

If patients are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 or have been exposed to someone with a suspected or confirmed case of the virus, they are asked to call before visiting any CaroMont Medical Group office or Urgent Care location.
