BUFFALO, N.Y. — As the number of COVID-19 cases in the region continue to climb, Kaleida Health is making an important change to its visitation policy.
Effective immediately, adult patients must now designate only one visitor/caregivers/support person to visit during the duration of their hospital stay. Laboring moms and pediatric patients can have two designated visitors/caregivers/support persons. Officials at Kaleida say this will help control the number of visitors in and out of the hospital.
As before, all visitors must wear a mask, practice social distancing and use alcohol-based hand sanitizer frequently, especially before and after entering a patient's room.
