Wellstar Enhanced Visitor Guidelines
Wellstar Health System has enhanced our visitor policy as part of our commitment to providing a safe environment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Every hospital is assigned a color reflecting its current visitation policy based on the number of active COVID-19 cases in each local community. The level of COVID-19 infections determines when and how many essential caregivers—patient advocates, family members and loved ones—can visit at this time.
We appreciate your cooperation as we work together to keep your loved one safe and healthy. If you have questions about the visitation policy, please call your local Wellstar hospital.
Green: Positive COVID-19 case levels are ongoing or low. Two essential caregivers (visitors) are permitted in most areas from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
Yellow: Positive COVID-19 case levels are elevated. No essential caregivers (visitors) are permitted in most areas.
Red: Positive COVID-19 case levels are high. No essential caregivers (visitors) are permitted.
Each hospital’s visitor policy will be updated weekly.
