Updated Visitor Policy

At Carolina Pines Regional Medical Center, our top priority is safeguarding the health and wellbeing of our patients, providers, employees and community. We continue to closely monitor the prevalence of coronavirus (COVID-19) in our community and follow state and federal guidance as we adapt our operations to safely care for and support our patients. Effective Tuesday, June 2, we are making the following changes to our visitor policy.

• Visitors are NOT allowed in the ICU or PCU due to high-risk, isolation, immunocompromised and respiratory patients who are under observation or have tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19).
• Med/Surg patients are limited to ONE well visitor per day from 8:00 AM-11:00 AM and 6:00 PM-9:00 PM.
• OB and Pediatric patients are limited to ONE well companion per day. 
• Emergency Department non-covid patients are limited to ONE well companion.
• Outpatient surgery patients are limited to ONE well companion. 
• NO visitors under the age of 12.
• We continue to screen everyone who enters our facilities for symptoms consistent with COVID-19, per CDC guidelines.
• Visitors are required to bring a personal mask or they will NOT be permitted to enter the facility. 
• Please utilize alternative methods of communication, including technology, with patients as much as possible.

Signage is being posted around the facility notifying visitors and the community of these new restrictions and guidelines.

Thank you for your continued understanding and cooperation as we work to maintain a safe environment for our patients and team.
