• Visitors will no longer be allowed. This policy applies to all MCMC facilities including the main hospital and all outpatient clinics. Patients and loved ones are encouraged to communicate via phone and/or video calls.

Minimal exceptions are in place for end-of-life patients, laboring mothers, pediatric patients, and trauma and critically ill emergency room patients.
