Patients and Families

At PVH, we know the love and support of family and friends can make a huge difference in the healing process. Relatives and friends are welcome to visit, but please remember that care is our first priority. Visiting hours are from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and guests are asked to check in at Patient Registration upon their arrival at PVH.

Visiting Regulations
Following are general guidelines for visitors:

  • Visitors may not smoke inside the hospital or outside the building. PVH is a smoke-free campus.
  • Visitors must dress appropriately and must wear shirts and shoes.
  • No more than two visitors should be at the bedside at one time. Please be considerate of other patients.
  • People with colds, sore throats or any contagious diseases should not visit patients.
  • Visits should be kept short.
  • Visitors should help maintain a quiet environment and avoid unnecessary noise.
  • Visitors may be asked to leave the room during tests or treatments or when the doctor or nurse needs to speak privately with the patient.
