Visiting Hours

Everything you need to know about when, where and how to visit your loved one at any of our hospitals, all in one place.

Visiting Hours

When your child is in the hospital, you want to be by his side as much as you can. Our general visiting hours are from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. or at the discretion of the patient and his medical team. Certain patient units may have different visiting hours, so please contact us questions.

Number of Visitors

We request that there are no more than two or three visitors at one time. This ensures our patients’ privacy, safety and comfort and allows our staff to provide care efficiently. Our hospital offers designated waiting areas to accommodate large groups.

Flu

Visitors who have flu-like symptoms, an infection or a contagious disease are asked not to come to the hospital to visit a patient until they are well.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) season

Florida has one of the longest RSV seasons in the United States, typically lasting from September to March. During this time, children under the age of 12 may not be able to visit patients in the hospital. RSV causes mild, cold-like symptoms but can be serious and even life-threatening to babies and patients with compromised immune systems.
